success with Threearrows - for anyone struggling with LOW IRON/FERRITIN
After 6 months I am finally seeing some progress with my iron panel! I spent 3 months on 4 ferrous gluconate tablets a day and my ferritin, saturation and iron barely budged. In fact, my serum iron actually decreased. I felt completely miserable with the prospect that I wouldn’t be able to optimise

Epigenetics - Heritability - Cadmium
Soon after diagnosis I joined a group headed by a man who viewed PCa as a modern disease with its origin in the womb. His bugbear was "Estrogen-like endocrine disrupting chemicals" (EEDC). I had come across the weird PCa risk factor of the second to fourth digit ratio, which seemed like voodoo science

ADT Recommendations
I'm probably looking at starting salvage radiation soon with 4-6 months of ADT. The doc suggests starting with Casodex and then two sequential Lupron shots. Is there a better way to do ADT for that period? I'd like to get my testosterone back quickly at the end of the treatment period if possible.

Private GP recommendation
Looking to try NDT (currently metavive) and have found a private GP from the thyroid UK list who is near to where I live. He is Dr David Eccleston, Sutton Coldfield West mids. I hope this is ok to name him? If anyone has experience of this GP could you PM please? Thanks all

Positive experience with Private GP
Hi all - for the benefit of anyone else dithering over trying a private GP... I've just had a really positive experience. She confirmed I have Hashi's (which has got a little worse/more antibodies since my previous bloods 6 months ago), we discussed treatments and she is prescribing a trial of NDT.

Does a big drop in PSA a month after the start of hormone treatment possibly represent a higher chance of cure?
Hi all, I have been researching and I have been wondering if big drops in PSA right after hormone treatment should give you more hope at a cure or if this does not change the situation at all? Father PSA of 226 dropped to 3 one month after Firmagon shot, and then 0.3 a month after that, and then 0.13

Increasing NDT dose
I’m in deed of advice once more. I was advised by Endo to increase my dose of NDT from 75 mg Efra but after several attempts, I failed. I was taking 75 mg + 25 mcg Synthroid every morning. Not feelingg100% but functioning. He suggested I take 60 mg +25 mcg Synthroid in the morning and another 30 mg

PSA Climbing while on Zoladex and Abiraterone with Prednisone
I have an appointment with Oncologist today. Going to ask if i can switch the prednisone for dexamethasone. Not sure if they will approve it. I was scheduled to start Xgeva. As I have been diagnosed with osteoporosis due to having ADT since 2017. What other treatment should I look forward to having

Going round in circles - Your input please
Hi - to cut a long story short. Do you think I need NDT? Am really keen to try the natural option as my T3 seems borderline but Naturopath didn't think it was necessary? I haven't felt 100% - am currently on 100mcg/daily Levo. Blood test - 17.02.23 T4 7.0 ug/dL (5.5-11) FT4 1.10

Seeking advice on course of action after Decipher Report
My Decipher Report came in and says that my Genomic Risk is High (0.66; 5 year risk of metastasis is 4.1%; 10 year risk of metastasis is 8.5%; and 15 year risk of prostate cancer mortality is 7.0%). I initially thought 7% sounded pretty good, but my RO said no, it's not, and he recommends getting going

When do hot flashes end once ADT is suspended?
I was on ADT (Eligard) quarterly injections from January 2021 to November 2022 (two years). I am still experiencing the side effects of frequent hot flashes, low energy levels, weight gain, etc. I would just like to know when I might expect the hormones to have been "flushed-out" of my system and my

Out of date meds
I have a whole box of tirosint and armour NDT that is all going to go out of date march 30th. I still have a whole two months left. Anyone know if this will still be ok? Really do not want to Chuck considering how much it cost.

Any Dr Geo Followers
Is anyone on here a follower of Dr Geo Espinoza in NYC? He is a proponent of "neutraceuticals" and has a very good following. He offers some pricey but reportedly quality supplement regimens for PCA patients at all stages. I am considering starting the ADT/Regimen 03. Curious as to anyone else's experience

The Use of Low Dose Estradiol to Ameliorate the Effects of ADT on Bone Mass Density
I have been conducting a long-term n of 1 trial since January 23, 2021 using lose dose estradiol (E2) gel to counteract the effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) on bone mass density (BMD). I believe that I now have sufficient data to report that low dose transdermal E2, along with exercise and

An Important thing to know if considering Estrogen Therapy.
My experience using estrogen as my only form of ADT has been positive. However, when my psa started rising and I began to feel pain in my spine and pelvis my MO put me on Zometa (bone drug IV every 3 mo). Was it necessary? I have no idea. I now get mildly sick for about 36 hours after the infusion

quick update
just spoke with my urology nurse consultant, my PSA is now 0.05, looks like the hormone treatment is working, looking like radiotherapy will start April/ May, I’ve got a personal trainer sorted out and a diet plan, and the effects of the hormone injection have eased, so I’m feeling positive Regards
