Can the T3 within NDT elevate AM cortisol?And not be best thyroid med for me?
Good Morning. Is it possible that the NDT within the Armour I am taking is elevating my AM cortisol? Looking back my AM cortisol has been up about 3 years on and off. But at the moment I feel shaky inside , very weak quads and hamstrings, very poor energy ,worse than ever. I currently take 1 1/4

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

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

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

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'!
Hello again everyone! Posted before but do not know how to attach this to my previous post. March 22 - PSA 1200 diagnosed metastatic hormone sensitive Pca. Mets to pelvis, ribs and nodes. Started ADT August 22 - 1st line Docetaxel - ITU admission drug induced pnemonitis. [i]Chemo no longer an option

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

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

ADT "vacation" terminology questions
I see a lot of posters here who say they do ADT "vacations." Are there any circumstances when NCCN SoC indicate cessation or interruption of ADT and abi? The term "vacation" implies an inevitable return to ADT. Do you wait for rising PSA or a fixed time to go by? What about when one has oligometastatic

Hi all 👋 Continuing on from my previous post here - https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk/posts/149372691/update-5-back-to-front I am officially bareback… 😬 but don’t worry, it’s not for long. Phase 1 of the plan now begins! It’s taken me about 5/6 weeks, but I have weaned down slowly from 2.5 grains

Need More Energy
I'm on ADT for life and I'm a retired professional golfer. I play three days a week. I feel so weak and tired when I play but I put up with it. Does anyone have any ideas how I can have more energy during my rounds of golf? My PSA and scans are undetectable and I don't want to take anything that would

Here I go.
So the beast has returned - In summary, after a 2 year ADT vaca, my PSA started to climb so i was tracking it monthly. I also got to Mayo and they did a PSMA/CAT in october (PSA=0.2)- that they "said" was clean. In March PSA went to 1.5 so we did another scan at the end of April- and I have two mets

Dose increase and RT3
Hello. I have followed along with this site for about a year. I have collected quite a bit of knowledge and so appreciate all that has been shared through this site. I have Hashimoto's (TPO is currently around 300 and I do not have TGab antibodies). Vitamin D, B12 and iron are all looking good. Still

Has anybody noticed a change to Armour at all this year?Just wanting to rule out different possibilities to why I feel worse than usual.
I have had alot of additional tough stressors this year ,but my FT4 and FT3 have dropped despite a gradual dose increase. I am going through the list of possibilities suggested on this forum, but thought I also should ask the question has Armour changed this year, ie perhaps a filler? I understand '

adrenal testing on the nhs?
is it worth trying? or are they going to only check for complete adrenal failure if i asked them? i have a feeling they will probably test what i ask since i've never had problems regarding specific tests before, but i would really just like to know what i should be checking. i'm losing LOTS of hair

SBRT without ADT
Hello All….hope you all are doing well. I decided to have radiation rather than surgery. My Gleason score is 7 with PSA 8.1. PMSA revealed no spread. Two lessons on prostate one positive and other negative. I will start 5 day radiation in about 10 days. I opt for 5 days over the 20 day option.
