Does orgasm return post-ADT
I’m into my third month of ADT and have completely lost the ability to orgasm. I am LIVID. I was NEVER told of this side effect. In fact, I was told I’d likely have ED but orgasm would still be possible. Which is an outright lie. Has anyone had the ability to orgasm return after discontinuing ADT or

Sclerosis due to cancer or treatment?
I recently developed sclerosis in my left hip area...painful to sit on a hard surface. PSMA tech wrote 'sclerosis developed consistent with treatment'. Oncologist seems unconcerned. I've read that sclerosis can sometime happen when ADT reduces tumor size, which means the bone has to adjust. The recent

Started HRT - Increased need to urinate - will this get better?
Hello Ladies I have just started HRT and I have some unpleasant side effects. I now seem to need the loo every 20min. It’s an urge and I don't feel I can empty my bladder. It’s affecting my life as I struggle to take journeys on the train or in the car. Is this normal? Will this get better? Thank

Diagnosed at 61
I had a my first tonic clonic seizure June 23. I'd been having focal seizures for 10 years but didn't know what they were, so never saw the doctor. I've had CT scan, MRI and all normal. Had an ECT and that showed abnormal electrical activity in my brain which shocked me. I started Lamotrigine in July

How you can help make ibrutinib plus venetoclax fixed duration therapy a reality for Australians with previously untreated CLL
In Australia, no new medicine can be listed on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) unless it has first been recommended by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee (PBAC). In March 2024, PBAC will again consider a submission to recommend a 15-month combination therapy of ibrutinib plus venetoclax

Has anyone tried HRT to help with migraines?
I have never been on HRT and went through the menopause seven years ago but have recently heard about how lack of oestrogen can add to migraines which I’ve suffered from for many years. Have you had any experience of HRT helping migraines ? Thanks!

Improved chances of success with ADT?
I'm a Gleason 4+3, group T2C. I completed five sessions of SBRT but the radiation oncologist says staying on Lupron for six months total will improve the odds of success. What I see online, though, is that ADT only improves the odds of success by 1-2 percentage points. If that's the case, it's not worth

Does PSA drop after starting ADT tell us anything?
My husband started Firmagon shots a month ago. Before starting his PSA was 5.9. It was tested a few days ago and it’s 1.4 now. Does this tell us anything of any significance? Thanks!

Why is my RO changing from Degerelix to Lupron after a month?
my husband started ADT treatment and RO informed him that after a month he will switch to Lupron. Is there a reason why he is doing this? As Lupron I read causes depression, anxiety. And if hopefully Degerelix works why change it? Can we request he not ? TIA.
