Lupron
??) and can he be treated? Oncologist will be calling today.

Lupron and shrinking penis
I understand that
Lupron
can cause this side effect. I have been taking injections for 1 year. At this point, the shrinkage is so much that it is almost nonexistent? Has anyone else had this problem and does it go away after stopping
Lupron
?

Firmagon vs Lupron
But the convenience of
Lupron
might be necessary as I'll be traveling for a bit and not near home base so I could get my Firmagon... My only worries are twofold.

Lupron
. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32469183/

Lupron Injection denied by Medicare Advantage PPO plan
I checked and Medicare part D covers
Lupron
for the treatment of Prostate Cancer. The Medicare Advantage plans must provide the "same or better" coverage. The Inquisitive One

Recovery of Testosterone
I am 78 and I have been on
Lupron
for 6 months with a Gleason score of 4+3. I am two months post
Lupron
and have my six month radiation follow up to the prostrate and pelvic area. As part of that my RO requested a PSA and a T blood test.

Testosterone Recovery after stopping ADT -1
Here's the first of four plots showing testosterone recovery after stopping
Lupron
ADT. The testosterone recovers quickest in the first 12 months, but then flattens out after that.

Castration by Estrogen Patch
This plot shows a dramatic decrease in testosterone and PSA after starting estrogen patch therapy, indicating that transdermal estrogen (TDE) therapy effectively castrates men, and with fewer side effects than
Lupron
ADT.

Anemia on Abiraterone + Prednisone + Lupron
Since November 2023 I have been taking Abiraterone + Prednosone for castrate resistant metastatic prostate cancer. In November my PSA was 0.8. In the first three months it went down to 0.26. Yesterday, my PSA was 0.16. But my hemoglobin and hematocrit became low at 11.6 and 36% respectively.

Enzalutamide + Lupron
Results of the new study:
Lupron
+ Enzalutamide = 87% BCR free
Lupron
= 71% Enzalutamide = 80% Thoughts on this study? I am meeting with Dr. Chandler Park on Tuesday who is one of the authors.

Estrogen ADT vs Lupron ADT
Here's a chart showing % of men who have a given condition, comparing Estrogen ADT versus
Lupron
ADT. There's big reduction in hot flashes, and improvements in libido, when taking supplemental Estrogen. Estrogen increases gynecomastia (enlarged breasts), however. Bob

How do you know if radiation treatment worked?
I had 25 sessions of radiation to prostate and pelvic area as a precaution and 6 (2 months prior and 4 after radiation)months of
Lupron
. For 9 months post radiation PSA has been not been detectable and it has now risen to 0.04. T is in the normal range. All other blood works were normal.

Still on
Lupron
for now. How long should I keep taking prednisone? I know Zytiga clears out pretty fast.

Any adverse effect if taking three-month Lupron shot two weeks late?
Hi friends, my father has been on
Lupron
shots every three months with Abiraterone pills for about a year now. His next shot will be 14 weeks due to some insurance problems. What is the ideal and acceptable time range between shots that won’t risks benefits of treatment?
