Testosterone post ADT
My t level is coming back very slowly following salvage radiation + 6 months ADT. I’m 60 years old and after nearly 18 months still have difficulty gaining muscle mass and losing this gut. The good news is my PSA is still undetectable. Any suggestions?

Am I high risk?
Im now getting confused with all these terms. See my bio. So 1 week into my EBRT, my RO stopped in and asked why Im still on abi+pred. He said when scheduling EBRT I could stop it. I told him my MO said not to stop. In the beginning, my RO intended for me to do Lupron, and only 6 months abi+pred

Advice please. Not sure how to proceed.
I am 49 and have Hashimoto's and have spent the last two years trying to find a doctor to properly treat my thyroid and help get to the root of the thyroid dysfunction. Last fall I learned I have mold and I am going through a mold protocol. My compounded NDT has been adjusted in dribs and drabs over

anxiety
Hi there to all fellow sufferers. I was wondering if anyone out there has suffered with anxiety and depression in the past not due to perimenopause. I am 52 and suffered bouts of clinical depression and anxiety on and off for many years. I’ve had the majority of perimenopause symptoms for a few years

Thoughts on ADT with sRT?
I've been told by several ROs that RT is more effective if given together with ADT, and I think that's pretty widely assumed to be true. I'm wondering, though, if what is seen to be a synergy may instead be only a statistical error. Temporary ADT can lead to permanent testosterone loss in up to 30%

Daily Cialis?
I have castrate-resistant MPC, on ADT for over 4 years and currently on chemo. My urologist and MO recommended I take 5mg Cialis daily to keep the blood flowing down there and prevent atrophy. I hate to take another drug, but will if it is beneficial. Does anyone take daily Cialis and are there any side

New Non Hormonal Menopause Drug
Saw this in the Guardian, hopefully positive news for those suffering with menopause hot flushes who can't or decide not to take HRT. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/may/20/drug-hot-flushes-transform-menopause-treatment-doctors-fezolinetant

Urtrogestan HRT Supplies to be Limited
Just to let interested members know I spotted this on the BBC news website https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-65655050.

HRT shortages after oophorectomy
Hi everyone How is everyone coping, what have you done around the HRT shortages? For me it's the utrogestan, I paid for it back in February and was given 30 days worth (should have been 90). But they haven't had any in stock since. I am starting to get concerned about endo growing back, and how quickly

ART Long-Term Mortality Low Regardless of Treatment in Local Prostate Cancer
Amazing! The headline states that there is ‘low’ mortality regardless of treatment for local PCa…really? Well, that did not make me feel very good as I opted for treatment! RP, followed by ADT for 6 months, followed by IMRT sRT, followed by 15 months of ADT post treatment…I was not feeling so good

Docetaxel efficacy
Hi All Three months after finishing docetaxel my husband’s PSA has risen from 0.3 to 3.4, which the oncologist tells us indicates that the cancer cells are active again, although he’s booked him for a PSMA PET scan to confirm this. We were hoping for at least a year without the need for any more treatment

My Dad Stage 4 Pca - MO happy to settle for PSA 30, as its not 'curative'!

Started ADT August 22 - 1st line Docetaxel - ITU admission drug induced pnemonitis. [i]Chemo no longer an option

Test results
Hi I have just got my results because but not sure what to make of it please. They are in range but only just from what I can see. I'm currently on 100 mg of levo for underactive. I have been feeling awful but feeling better over past week or so when took blood test. I've changed my hrt. Reduced

Pluvicto after long time androgen deprivation therapy
Hello warriors, the more I read, the more I have a feeling, that chances of great response to Pluvicto / LU-177 are rather slim after being on ADT for years. It certainly seems the case for castration-sensitive PC, not sure about castration-resistant PC. [i]Continuous long-term ADT significantly

Is surgery usually the only option?
Hi, I have a history of Endo and possible Adenomyosis - previously had cysts and lesions removed during laparoscopy (not sure if it was ablation or excision - it was over 10 years ago & I was quite uninformed at the time). I am approaching menopause age (no sign yet) - I was hoping this would alleviate

prostap, HRT and lap
Hey everyone. I had my lap done privately last year, gyno advised he couldn’t see anything. I took the images from surgery to one of the specialists on the endo website and they have advised they can see what they think is endo on my pelvic wall and I am currently on NHS waiting for my next laparoscopy

looking for advice.
My husband Martin was diagnosed in 2019 with prostate cancer. Gleason score 7 (3+4) Biopsy showed 12 out of 16 cores. In June 2019 he had Robotic surgery. We were told everything went very well. His PSA dropped to <0.05. This lasted until September 2020 when his PSA started to increase 0.46. And continued
