I am livid, confused , worried and scared as hell that my ORGOVYX -ADT symptoms are mine for life.
I thought 20 tx imrt & 4 mos of Orgovyx from all the docs I talked to secured a pretty good chance of crushing my cancer AND a real good chance of having my T come back to Normal after " 4 mos". "
"
T " should be back to normal within the same time you were on the drug " that was the wishy

T or E2
He claims that the acting hormone for promoting Pca growth is
estradiol
and not
testosterone
at all. He makes a very convincing case for his claims.

Low Testosterone Levels - female
Hi, just wondering if anyone knows anything about low testosterone levels - I was recently tested and testosterone is 0.09 nmol/l (<0.29 low) and also low free androgen index <0.1 (<0.3 low). Is there any link with thyroid issues/hormone imbalances? Thank you

Oestradial HRT & the thyroid, Lenzetto blood tests
I just wondered if low oestradial affects the thyroid? I have been on HRT since March and my level is still only 197 pmol/L. I use 3 sprays of Lenzetto. I wondered if it could be affecting my thyroid function? I don’t have menopause symptoms, I had bottom of range testosterone, but this is now in range

Testosterone and SHBG puzzle ...
Hello all, I am on HRT including testosterone replacement: what do you think of these results? High SHBG, high testosterone but sub-optimal Free Androgen Index, I was told by a menopause doctor that the index should be around 2.5 to be optimal and that is the most important indicator. I was put on a

Provenge criteria necessary for acceptance.
Apparently Medicare will pay for Provenge provided we are castrate resistant and metastatic. But are there other requirements like certain PSA parameters and lower testosterone levels? Do we have to remain on ADT while being treated with Provenge?

Aetna appeal for Firmagon denial
My husband was diagnosed with high risk aggressive prostate cancer, Gleason 9. Plus one para rectal node positive. The doctor prescribed 2 years of ADT plus 5 weeks of IMRT. Had first 240 mg dose of firmagon on September 14 with no major side effects so far. Doctor used firmagon to avoid testosterone

diagnosed - what happens now?
I was a late developer. I didn’t get a period till I was 15, and when I did they were never regular. I was anorexic so my periods went pretty much forever. Then I got addicted to alcohol and my periods went again and then when I got clean and ate normally, my periods returned. Then I was having to move

BCR May Not Be a Strong Surrogate End Point for Prostate Cancer Survival
A new study, below [1] & [2]. In 2004 I came across old studies that showed that ADT promotes changes to the androgen receptor [AR] environment. At diagnosis, the AR is invariably "wild type". When ADT failed, AR gene amplification was common. True mutations were rare. {This was sufficient for

testosterone finally moving up after Treatment.
April of 2018 I was diagnosed with stage 111 PC with a tumor against my rectum. Finally after 19 months of lupron and zytiga and 40 rounds of radiation my testosterone has hit 325. I do 3 month testing and it has held for 6 months. I can feel the difference and am not only doing more but my weight is

vaginal estrogen and vag valium question
I was wondering if any of you lovely ladies are using both vaginal estrogen cream and vaginal valium suppositories. I'm supposed to insert a valium suppository every night (10mg) and I also insert 1 gram of estradiol cream three nights a week. I'm worried that the valium will keep the estrogen cream

Abstract from U of Maryland by Costello & Ferguson
ABSTRACT All cases of prostate cancer exhibit the hallmark condition of marked decrease in zinc in malignancy compared to the high zinc levels in the normal and benign prostate. There exists no reported corroborated case of prostate cancer in which malignancy exhibits the high zinc levels that exist

My scans showed spread but......
My scans showed no spread but Sept 1 my right nipple became very sensitive and a 2" diameter hardness formed around it. I applied Clio twice a day and today the hardened area is the size of a dime. The Clio I use is 5-chloro-7-iodoquinolin-8-ol). U of Maryland is the best source of cancer research that
