Chemotherapy with ADT & Radiotherapy for Localized High-Risk PCa.
New study below [1]. We know that early use of Docetaxel [Taxotere] may benefit men with extensive metastases, but what about high-risk men without mets? "A total of 612 patients were enrolled; 563 were evaluable. Median prostate-specific antigen was 15.1 ng/mL; 53% had a Gleason score 9 to 10 cancer

Intense ADT before prostatectomy.
New study below [1]. Of academic interest to the group, but useful to others we might know, perhaps. Phase II study with 75 men & 19 co-authors! "Eligible patients had a biopsy Gleason score of 4 + 3 = 7 or greater, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) greater than 20 ng/mL, or T3 disease ... Lymph nodes

Clinical Trial Trials
My husband is participating in the EMBARK Study at Winship Cancer in Atlanta (Emory). We aren't allowed to know his PSA as part of the study. The object is to determine if earlier use of Enzalutamide (hormone sensitive, non-metastatic) will cause a delay in radiographic progression. So far, his scans

ED Recovery -- Are there signs to look for?
Really, it's a two part question: (1) For those of you who had a radical prostatectomy, how many have recovered to where an erection capable of penetration without pills, needles, implants, etc has occurred? (2) If you have recovered erectile capability, was it an "overnight" event, or are there signals

HDT DOSING : How Much Should We Take??? A Reference Page To Add Your Dosing Information To
With Dr. Costantini unavailable for consults due to his current health, the HU Forum and others have a definite need for HDT dosing information that other members can use as a guideline.

EAU19 Barcelona – 15-19 March 2019 - Testosterone slows PCa recurrence in low-risk patients.
US researchers have found out that testosterone replacement slows the recurrence of prostate cancer in low-risk patients. One of the largest studies undertaken so far may call into question the general applicability of Nobel-Prize winning hormonal prostate treatment. The work was presented at the European

Hi there, While avoiding Dr Google I stumbled across this forum, which seems to be full of lovely supportive and informative people. My dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2010 (Gleason 7) and following a radical prostatectomy has had no further treatment due to stable PSA readings. A rise in

Blood Loss during Radical Prostatectomy [RP] & outcomes.
New German-Canadian study [1]. Of interest to me because of my RP experiense. I donated the maximum 2 units of blood prior to surgery. My surgeon said that he would probably not need them. There was usually very little blood. This was not the case in the early days, when the surgeon was typically

Vitamin & mineral blood tests interpretation
Hi everyone, I've had nutritional blood tests taken for the 1st time and am confused about the results. I wonder why the vitamin B results are arranged like this. Dificient >1.25 and <1.15 normal . I would have thought it would be the other way around so the highest amount would be normal and lowest
