ADT and bone health
I have been on ADT after radical
Prostatectomy
for over 14 months and to date aside from the sexual libido loss I have had very little side effects. I have always been a health / exercise buff & continue to exercise everyday to maintain my mental & physical health and so far very good results.

Living life after a prostatectomy
In 2021 was diagnosed with prostate cancer. I went through the operation and 2 months later lost my spouse of almost 50 years. Obviously, I had a lot put on my plate at one time. I'm on hormone therapy and it's dropped my PSA from 1 to .1. I would love to talk to someone who is going through the same

12-year post surgery PSA
Hi All, Hard to believe that it’s been 12 years since my
prostatectomy
. So many health issues since then that PCa has moved down my list of worries. My PSA for the prior 2 years was .008. This year’s result just back and it’s ticked up to .009.

Information overload and now decision time!
Do I do robotic
prostatectomy
or do I have 4 weeks of RT at 5 days a week? Neither will actually start until early December. The urologist says
prostatectomy
and the Radiology Oncologist suggests RT with HT as a backup.

should I stop Zytiga early?
Had
prostatectomy
, radiation, and been on Lupron for 21 months and Zytiga for 17 months. PSA undetectable and five tests of Natera’s blood test show 0.0 parts per million of my cancer cells. Am a vegan and very active but have typical symptoms - hot flashes etc.

PSA suppression
" [1] Following my failed
prostatectomy
in March 2004, it seemed inevitable that Lupron would be in my near future. I had read dozens of papers with boilerplate introductions where ADT was described as a therapy that was usually effective at first, but for only 18-24 months in most men.

ADT before Surgery?
I have a
prostatectomy
which is probably 6-8 weeks in my future. My outlook is that metastasis in imminent. (T3bM0n0 and no evidence of cancer outside the gland as of May 25 PSMA PET scan, but I am told I am intermediate/unfavorable and my PSA went from 10 to 12 in only a month.)

Prostate-Kidney and BPH Decision for treatment.
Their recommendation was: Primary recommendation due to my age of 59 and overall good health and best option to get rid of cancer was for Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic
Prostatectomy
(Nerve sparing) • Based on my research I came into meeting leaning heavily toward radiation with only advantages I see

I have been diagosed . On biopsy my gleason score is 4+4=8 with a group grade of 4. I have many autoimmune diseases PBC Sjogrens Scleroderma
My surgeon is reluctant to do
prostatectomy
because of potential healing problems and my age 74. The cyber knife doctor is very hesitant because of severe complications due to autoimmune diseases. I am leaning towards prosatectomy

Updates on my father
My father was scheduled for a simple robotic
prostatectomy
which turned in a partial cystectomy .. The surgeon found a well oval encapsulated mass in the bladder in the size of 14 cm which he removed it .

Implant brand preferences?
Hello All, I'm 53 and had a radical
prostatectomy
in Feb 2023 for Gleason 5+5, stage 3, positive node=1, intraductal carcinoma. Surgeon was unable to spare any nerves and I've got nothing in the area of erections.

PSA rising
Prostatectomy

So unsure what to do...
The urologist immediately told me that based on my age, he felt that I should get a
prostatectomy
. I left the office feeling so sad and so scared and I having a tough time deciding what would be the best treatment for me.
