Study: Addition of Short-term ADT Fails to Improve Survival over Radiotherapy Alone for Intermediate-Risk PCa
This is a very interesting large-scale study but it is only one study. Here's the Scoop: "The addition of short-term androgen deprivation (STAD) to dose-escalated radiotherapy did not improve overall survival (OS) for patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer, although the regimen did produce

Hormonal therapy and Meningioma brain tomors
Back in 2016 I was diagnosed with stage 4A (regionally metastatic) Ductal Prostate Cancer. In addition to surgery and radiation I was on Lupron and Zytiga with prednisone for a couple of years, ending in late 2018. Luckily for me it looks like I was able to make it to remission. Unfortunately in 2019

Enzalutamide plus leuprolide reduces risk of metastasis in nonmetastatic HSPC men-from Urology Times, 29 Apr 2023
Findings from the phase 3 EMBARK trial showed that enzalutamide (Xtandi) plus leuprolide reduced the risk of metastasis or death by nearly 60% vs placebo plus leuprolide in patients with nonmetastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (nmHSPC) with high-risk biochemical recurrence (BCR).1,2 "The

EMBARK trial
Watching the results of the EMBARK trial with great interest as they had a ‘Lutamide monotheraoy’ arm that has performed very well and now questions are being asked about needing ADT for high risk of BCR in the hormone sensitive. Not matching my position of course ( there is no population that does)

Orchidectomy?
I have no plans to have an orchidectomy but I’m curious why some men do get them. I get that it allows one to avoid needing the periodic injections. But as I understand it one still has to take something to deal with the testosterone that is still produced by the adrenal glands even after the orchidectomy

ART Effect Of Adjuvant And Salvage Radiotherapy After Radical Prostatectomy On Urinary Continence
Well, I am 'continent' according to the criteria in this study (a bit old, but not ancient)...of course continence here is defined as "[i]no pads or one safety pad.[/i]" OK. Now, I went into sRT with a safety pad and was warned by my RO that this had a chance of being 'locked in.' I proceeded anyway

I have been receiving Lupron shots every three months and taking Xtandi daily for a little more than a year. This follows a RALP and 36 days of radiation, all parts of my doctors’ kitchen sink strategy. No doubt there is a lot going on in my body. One of the most persistent side effects, however,

Natural Desiccated thyroid
I wondered if anyone in the UK has tried natural desiccated thyroid and if so what brand they used. I'm only on 25mcg but have really struggled with terrible side effects. I'm now wheat and dairy free but still not right. Any information would be much appreciated.

Casodex
Is anyone doing only Casodex for their ADT together with their salvage rad? Are there any disadvantages for a six month course? Seems like it would make T recovery less of a problem.

Seeking advice on test results, Metavive and suggested next steps
Hi everyone, I’m interested in your observations, suggestions and ideas about the following. I know I’m not alone in experiencing that horrible, sinking moment where, following yet another GP appointment, it becomes increasingly apparent that you’re going to have to become a low-level thyroid expert

Not the news I was hoping for
Just had my second PSMA/PET scan - the first one was in October and was clear - my PSA had risen to 0.2. My PSA has been jumping around but has trended up the last two months to 2.5. So I went to Mayo for my scan today. Impression 1. Worsening of T9 hypermetabolic lesion (miPSMA score 3). 2. New

where to go next?
Hi all. I am looking for advice/suggestions on which way to go next. Obviously GP's are not interested. I have multiple signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism, with a strong family history on one side of my family, and it's probable on the other too-we're not the best at communicating. I test low FT4 via

Travel insurance and prostate cancer
I have had HIFU for prostate cancer that was only partially successful. Subsequently my PSA started to rise again so I was treated 5 years ago with docetaxel followed by decapeptyl hormone therapy starting 4 years ago. I want to go on holiday. Can anyone recommend a travel insurance company that will

need some words of encouragement please
Hi everyone, it’s been a while since I last made a post. I started armour last September after being on a high dose of thyrogold for years and I’m still trying to find my dose on armour. I have gradually worked up to 3 grains which has been a rocky and rather arduous task (low iron and low cortisol
