PC History
PET scan revealed two lesions in my seminal vesicles so I went on
Lupron
for six months then at four-month mark, hit it with 35 Proton treatments. A few months later when
Lupron
wore off, and testosterone rose, PSA crept up immediately.

Potential Orgovyx Side Effect
I have been on Orgovyx for almost 3 months and having been on
Lupron
for several years, I am very familiar with what side effects I can expect. I have experienced something that has cropped since I started Orgovyx and am wondering if anyone else has experienced the same thing.

How common is Nocturia with PCa?
Is this caused by PCa, Abiraterone,
Lupron
or it is a post Radiation side effect? Also does it get better, any treatment advice that might help is greatly appreciated. Thank you all so much.

Timing of Radiation treatment after starting ADT
From the few studies I have seen the sweet spot ( for maximum shrinkage of the prostate) seems to be 12 to 24 weeks after starting on ADT ( I am on
Lupron
and Zytiga). I want to hit the cancer with radiation when it is at it's weakest.

13 year Battle with Stage 4 PC
When it began to rise, he went on
Lupron
injections/ then Casodex. In 2018, his PSA jumped to 19 and his Urologist referred him to Oncology. He continued with
Lupron
. He had Provenge which helped for a few months.

Got PSMA SCAN Results-Now What?
April 9 a local oncologist gave me a 3 month dose of leoprolide acetate (
Lupron
). Soon thereafter there was a conflict between Dr Sartor and the local oncologist as he wanted me to start on a regime of denosumab (Xgeva).

Results after Orchiectomy
I had Orchiectomy done starting with a psa of 1.1 in April 2021 and my psa has slowly declined after every 6 week blood test 1.0, .83, .89, .7, .38 Nothing has changed with my medications, other than dropping
Lupron
, nor with nutrition. Any thoughts?

Removal after Twenty Years
Well folks, after diagnosis of advanced cancer in 2000, no removal of prostate, radiation and Zoladex, 2006 recurrence and chemotherapy, continued
Lupron
only until 2016, added Casodex for two years, then Erleada for two years, then Zytiga for two years and now with MRI revealed and biopsy confirmed

Chemo with docetaxel?
I am on
Lupron
or Zoladex shots every three months. I'd be interested in views of the best (and worst) case scenarios expectable from chemo with docetaxel. Supposing my PSA is about 50 when I start, how much might chemo knock it back down, and for how long?

PSA rise
Have been on
Lupron
and Zytiga for five years now. PSA has been increasing exponentially .02, .04, .16 Is this an indication that my medication is losing its effectiveness?

Cardio Vascular Risk from Lupron
One of the side effects of long term
Lupron
use is cardio vascular risk. My understanding is that the risk comes from castrate level testosterone, not from
Lupron
directly. Am I right?
