Supraphysiological Androgens [SPA] Promote Tumor Suppressive Activity of the AR Through cMYC Repression and Recruitment of the DREAM Complex
New study [1]. I have struggled to understand how Denmeade’s BAT (Bipolar Androgen Therapy) depends on supraphysiological levels of androgen (testosterone = ~2,000 ng/dL), considering that Morgentaler’s saturation model has it that androgen receptors [ARs] have all the testosterone they can use at

Met with Radiation Oncologist
Met with radiation oncologist today. His recommendation was Cyberknife, no ADT. He did say that if I felt more comfortable with surgery that there was an "amazing" surgeon within 100 miles that he would recommend. I liked the guy, he has been doing Cyberknife for years and felt that with a co-existing

Firmagon vs Lupron vs Orgovyxx
Is there any difference in cost/effectiveness? My urologist wanted me to start hormone therapy with Firmagon, but my radiation oncologist wanted me to go on Orgovyxx instead...any thoughts? Thank you!

Revisiting Intermittent Therapy in Metastatic Prostate Cancer
The A-Dream Phase 2 trial is taking a second look at intermittent therapy for mHSPCa. In the study they hope to answer the question 1. Can intermittent therapy (a break from treatment) for high responders (PSA < .2 over 18-24 mos) on ADT+ARPi be more effective than continuous ADT (the current standard

Thyroid and HRT?
Hi everyone - sorry for the long post!! I was diagnosed as underactive over 15 years ago (autoimmune) and, as consultant originally explained, I needed to increase levothyroxin dose over the years. For the past few years I've managed reasonably well on 175mcg in winter and 150mcg in summer. I started

taxotere and PSA
adt stopped 9/22, daralutamide mono therapy until 7/23. Three rounds of docetaxel until 7/17/23. PSA rose from 4.9 to 5.1. PSMA scan showed decline in bone Mets. Tried a bit of fasting. Just switched to cabitaxel due to seeming failure of docetaxel based on PSA rise. Wondering if PSA increase was the

Can you reject GNRH analogues? Consequences? Please help.
Hi there, I'm going in for my second Endo surgery next week, 9cm endometrioma, and the MRI showed a few other lesions. My last surgery was 6 years ago, and they removed a 16m endometrioma. The surgeon called last week in response to some questions I had and made an offhand remark about having a shot

Et triple negative platlets gone up to 1560
Hi all, Just getting back on here about platlets increasing over 1500,My hematologist will want me on hydroxyurea as he said when I go over 1500 that is his way forward. The past 2 bloods I had done have come down from 1420 to 1402 to 1300 last time 6 weeks ago. I am just wondering if it has to be this

Questions about ADT drugs and insurance
Will Medicare cover Lupron injections under part B as it is not self administered (as opposed to pills)? If so how much will they cover (with a supplement plan). Regarding Orgovyx, since it is a pill and not an injection will it be covered under Medicare part D drug coverage? and if so do all of the

Hashi's & Menopause/HRT - weight loss help!
Hi all, I have Hashimoto's and have been on levo 75mg with combined HRT (oestrogen patch and progesterone pill) for a few years. Had a total hysterectomy almost 2 years ago, but they left my ovaries, due to extensive endo, adenomyosis and fibroids. But I have literally been stuck in limbo since then

My thyroid seems worse with every dose increase.
I could not take levo/synthroid..It made me feel too bad. One time on synthroid I had good numbers still felt awful. I switched to armor. It seems the dose will make me feel good for about a month...then I start getting worse and worse..The next month they check my thyroid numbers and they are higher

Thinner lining on transfer day
Hello everyone, I’d really appreciate your experiences. I’ve had a FET today on a natural cycle. 7 days ago my lining was 11.4mm and today for the transfer it was 7.2mm. Has anyone else seen a drop off like this? I asked the doctor and she said it could be that the lining has compacted and that above
