Tales of a stage 4+ endo warrior
Hello Endo Warriors I wanted to share my story as so many of you have given me the courage to do so. I've always had painful debilitating periods, the usual over the counter and prescribed pain relief and 'IBS' treatments didn't work. Luckily in 2003 on an overseas trip I discovered the magical powers

Of six
LHRH

studies reporting PSA during the period of T flare, five showed no significant rise in PSA despite the presence of advanced disease with mean baseline PSA as high as ≥500ng/ml.

It was also able to show that breakthrough increases of testosterone levels during
LHRH

therapy exhibited a markedly negative effect on ‘androgen-independent’ progression.

Occult cancer in patients with deep-vein thrombosis [DVT].
New study below [1]. It's a reminder that dysfunctional coagulation is an early event in cancer & after a DVT , a man should be screened for cancer - particularly PCa. But for men with PCa who have not suffered a DVT, it is a warning that coagulation factors are nonetheless altered. In PCa, micro-clots

Bicalutamide (Casodex) plus Dutasteride (Avodart)
Similar to [3], a 2016 Canadian paper [4] reported that: "Dutasteride and Bicalutamide is a regimen of non-inferior efficacy to
LHRH
agonist
based regimens for prostate volume reduction prior to permanent implant prostate brachytherapy."

Low PSA with a Gleason 8 diagnosis
In March 2009, we ended the Casodex, and I received a one-year implanted dose of Vantas, a
LHRH
agonist
, aka androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). At that time I was also diagnosed with osteopenia, a precursor to full-blown osteoporosis, so I enjoyed three years of quarterly Zometa infusions.

Gonapeptyl depot inj. and rapid heart rate: has anyone else had this?
Hi everyone, I had my first Gonapeptyl depot injection last week. After a few hours, I realised my heart was racing noticeably (wasn't doing anything exciting ;-), just lazing on the sofa). I checked using a BP/HR cuff and my heart rate was 105, instead of the usual ~70 bpm. It's stayed around 100

Lupron, Estradiol and the Mitochondria: A Pathway to Adverse Reactions
For those not familiar with Dr. Chandler Marrs, PhD and her website "Hormones Matter' this will serve as an introduction. She has a ton of very interesting articles on the site relating to 'hormones', of course, and quite often takes a deep dive into the subject matter. The comments to the article

For those who have used visanne, how long does it take for it to be effective in relieving pain?
I have used GnRH agonist injections and did get relief but afterwards pain came back. I was on another progestin preparation, orgametril, 5mg twice daily. I was told by my gynaecologist to take 3 tablets daily but it made me sick and weak, so I opted to take 2 a day and the pain varied from day to day
