How long does SBRT to two lymph nodes continue to lower PSA?
Just wondering…does SBRT continue to drop PSA for any length of time? Or is it five sessions and it is what it is then? Curious if I can see further PSA reduction after 5 sessions to one node, then 5 to a second node. No prostate. See the treating RO in a couple of days, but thought I would ask

Elective c section
Hello, I am over 40 years old with my first IVF pregnancy and I am looking into elective c section options. Do you know at what week it is usually scheduled? The midwife only said before 40 weeks but did not go into the specifics… probably as I’m still in the first trimester. Thank you 🙏🏻

Prostate cancer made to my brain, skull and muscles in my head
Well, that’s something isn’t it? Have you ever seen that much cancer in someone’s head? Both my radiation oncologist and my and my regular oncologist at City of Hope said that this is something very unusual for prostate cancer to do. So there getting all of it for research to investigate what the

Has anyone here been told to move to donor and proceeded with own eggs and been successful? Nhs Consultant said that we need to look at donor eggs or adopt. He will not give us another round based on the response of the last round. Amh 1.8 and fsh 11 Two failed rounds. I don’t think I can get my head

First time poster overwhelmed with symptoms and considering self-medicating with bovine adrenals & NDT. Asking for advice & recommendations
TLDR: First time poster diagnosed Hashimotos and POI, investigating IBS which is potentially also autoimmune cause. Fatigue, depression and anxiety are ruining my life. Low Adrenal Index Test results so considering self-medicating with Bovine Adrenals. High TSH and anti thyroid antibodies, but low-end-of-normal

Subclinical hypothyroidism and IVF
Hi, We’ve had 1 round of IVF/ICSI which we were referred for due to my partner’s low sperm count. Our first embryo transfer was unsuccessful but we have another one frozen. The clinic asked me to get my Vit D and thyroid levels tested by the GP before FET. I asked the GP for a print out of the results

Rising PSA
What are the most Accurate scans for detecting hot spots of cancer? Husband has had several PSMA scans and CT with contrast yet nothing shows up. He had one lymph show up in 2017 on an Auxium scan and it was radiated. 7 years later PSA rising… up to 14. Yet scans show nothing definitive. CT with

Embryo 4BA
So after a very long IVF journey (5 rounds, 4 transfers, 2 MC, 1BFN and our wonderful daughter), we decided to go down the Donor Egg route for one last shot at a 2nd child. I thought this journey would be easier. Eggs from a young, healthy woman, my husband sperm is good, but it is just as stressful

PSA uptick
Quick background, my dad was diagnosed with metastatic PCa in 2018. Initially treated with docetaxel + ADT. His PSA has been at/near undetected (<0.01-0.02) for several years, but recently there has been an uptick to 0.08 (similar on a recheck, so not lab error). Obviously still low-level, but concerning

thyroid issues and ivf
Hi I’ve recently had 2 unsuccessful fet’s, one was a BFN and the other stopped growing at around 5 weeks. I’ve had some bloods done recently and it appears that there’s some issues with my thyroid. (Undectable tsh and below range low t4). I know the big impact being hypothyroid can have on fertility

Feel like giving up
Urgh, not having the best day after a stupid fall out with the other half, I'm nearing the end of my first IVF cycle (1 transfer left) and I'm considering just throwing in the towel, I've been up and down about the toll it's taken on my life generally since last year (2 early miscarriages so far) and

Dealing with IVF is sin and have you thought about adoption comments
Are there Catholics who are pissed of with IVF is sin conversations and 'have you ever thought about adoption' questions? Those who have already 6 kids and 15 grandchildren find it easy to judge and never understand what it means not having a biological child of your own. Neither understanding that
