PSMA Pet Scan results
My Dad has been on Abiraterone, Prednisone and Lupron for 2.5 years. He already had back in 2021 radiation to prostate, lymph nodes and 2 ribs. His PSA started going up and we just got the results from PSMA Pet Scan: “Highly PSMA positive tumor in the left prostate gland, increased in intensity and spatial

Abiraterone seems to be working
An update on my situation. To review, I now appear to be castrate resistant after about 6 1/2 years of being castrate sensitive. My MO put me on Abiraterone, along the existing Lupron. I had my MO appt and my PSA has fallen from 4.5 to 2 after about 7 weeks on Abi. This is my second iteration with Abi

Eligard injection site
I’m changing from 3 month Lupron to 6 month Eligard. Lupron has always been injected in my hip and I’m wondering if Eligard can also use the same site. Thanks in advance for your comments.

Using Enzalutamide, Darolutamide, Apalutamide only.
I've seen a number of posters here and there who say they use one of the "mides" listed above with no ADT like Lupron, Eligard, Firmagan, or Orgovyx, etc. If so, did you begin that regimen after being on first level ADT for a while along with the 'mide," or did you start on the "mide" alone at the start

Length of Treatment for Orgovyx (Relugolix) versus Lupron and other Longer Acting ADT drugs as Adjuvant to RT or Used for IADT?
I'm curious if anyone has had any discussion with their MO or Radiation Oncologist about having to take a longer course of Orgovyx compared to Lupron or other longer acting ADT drugs because Testosterone comes back so much quicker on Orgovyx? It would seem to me, 6 months of Orgovyx is like the equivalent

Concern about having more radiation to prostate after 43 external beam treatments 15 years ago
15 years ago my husband had 43 radiation treatments after PSA reached 50 & his 3rd biopsy showed 1 core to have cancer., Gleason was 3-3. He has had Lupron injections since then. He was on 250mg of Zytiga with food and 5 mg Prednisone for 3 years until a year ago because PSA was creeping up & he was

Chemo or no/not yet?
59 years old. Metastatic/high volume. PSA hit 366 before starting Abiraterone and Degarelix. Start Lupron next week. Negative on DNA test. Will see what PSA looks like next week after a month of ADT. My question chemo, no chemo or wait on chemo? Onco and Rad Onco both seemed to have a very soft attitude

2Nd Biopsy in 3+ years of Bone Met
Greetings All, A question about biopsies: Upon PC-stage 4 diagnosis per discovery of pc lesions causing spinal compression in 2020, my husband had a biopsy taken during his back surgery-which showed his already metastatic pc not to be an inherited condition. He went on to radiation of the spinal

Dienogest after hysterectomy
Hi all,I am 6 weeks post-op from a hysterectomy. I have only a right ovary. The doctor prescribed dienogest 2mg for 6 months. Has anyone else been prescribed dienogest after a hysterectomy? Can dienogest cause ovary failure? It's known that medications like Lupron, and dienogest address symptoms rather

stims and egg freezing… help
I’m in the US and I’m doing egg freezing which is the first part of IVF. I only have one tube and ovary and I am on stims day 4. Lost the other side to ovarian torsion. I feel pressure down there and I’m getting worried about if this is normal or not? Also getting very gassy. afc 11, amh 1.96

How many estrogen patches should I use?
I had a nice breakthrough today. 😀 I collected all of the available data on the number of estrogen patches that the studies have used, and plotted the measured serum estradiol level versus total milligrams of estrogen used every week. I was pleasantly surprised when all five of the data points
