If I do, or if I don't...
Began 24 month
Lupron
in October followed in November with whole bed radiation/boost to hotspots on two lump nodes (identified by PSMA scan) which was completed the second week in January. Last week my PSA was 1.7. My MO said retest in September, and that testing before then only creates anxiety.

PYLARIFY diagnostic could not find prostate cancer cells, then a surprise!
Lupron

Lupron

Cyclic high dose testosterone + Nubeqa
He said if this fails my next step is docetaxel and
lupron
. All of this has me really nervous and I hope I'm getting the best advice from my MO. Thoughts?

I was on
lupron
injections for almost 1 year. I didn’t like the pain for 5 days after injection plus insurance only paid half the cost so I got an orchiectomy. I don’t regret that. Several months after the orchiectomy, my PSA level went up so my urologist said it’s time to see an oncologists.

I’m new here. Does Carboplatin sound right for my next course of treatment?
Currently on
Lupron
but stopped Zytiga because my PSA is rising. My PSA increased from 0.13 to 0.52 in a 3 three month span. My Oncologist wants to begin chemo with Carboplatin, but what other effective options are there.

Lupron Substitute
I was given
Lupron
every 3 months for my first 9 months and then switched to something that was injected into my abdominal muscles every 3 months. Any idea of what the second round was and it’s effectiveness? I was told that there was a shortage of
Lupron
during the pandemic. Now back on
Lupron
.

Micro-Mets Next Steps
Beloved, well-read, much-experienced cancer colleagues, My PSA has gone up quite slowly since being OFF all ADT since 2015-16 clinical trial on
Lupron
and Apaludimide (I had heart attack and a TIA then- my oncologist has not urged me to go back on ADT since).

Zytiga progress update
Hi following on from my earlier post I’m approaching the end of my forth week and I would say it is not that much different to
Lupron
except I find the fatigue and minor ache are more intense (both seem to come and go). My hip pain does seemed to have eased.

My husband recently started
Lupron
and Casodex for stage 3b prostate cancer. Will begin 45 radiation treatments soon. Does anyone have any experience as to the effectiveness of this treatment and ..what has been your experience with side effects to the radiation treatment? Thank you.

Xtandi and sex
I'm looking to start Xtandi WITHOUT
Lupron
or its equivalents. My question is "does Xtandi destroy libido like
Lupron
?" Any user responses will be appreciated.

Recurred G9 after surgery. Painful lymph nodes, mass and hip met.
I Med Onco wants me to go the
Lupron
+ Taxotere route. I've seen others go other routes such as HT+Zytiga or some other combo. I have a biopsy scheduled, but they cant do it for a couple of weeks.

Four Year Transdermal Estradiol Update
Refused to subject myself to
Lupron
injections, so I started applying tE2 gel (based on Richard Wassersug's outstanding success and recommendation) in April of 2018 after everything else failed and my PSA continued to rise.

Orgovyx
I wasn't embracing ADT as those I knew were getting
Lupron
shots combined with Zytiga and Prednisone...and had all kind of side effects The only side effect I have had is some very transient hot flushes a couple of times a day. FWIW

Sally Jones-oncologist??
He is seeing his Urologist for the
Lupron
shots and Casodex and a Radiation Oncologist for his Radiation treatments (5x/wk for 9 wks). Just wondering your opinion on if he needs to see an Oncologist or if the Radiation Oncologist is it for the time being?

LUPRON vs FIRMAGON: Is The Debate About Superiority Over? With the December FDA approval of Relugolix the debate may now be moot
* At day 4 relugolix achieved castrate T level in 56.0% of men compared to
Lupron
, 0%. At day 4 the T level was 38 ng/dL for relugolix.
Lupron
produced a ‘surge” to 625 ng/mL day 4 then dropped to castrate level by day 6.

Gerson therapy: juicing
He started
lupron
, and completed radiation treatment this past week. I am caring for him in his home, and started hospice care several days ago. I liked our hospice intake nurse that assessed my dad. She recommended Gerson therapy.
