T flare with Lupron jab
Does every Lupron injection leads to a temporary
testosterone
flare or just the first one?I'm on 3 monthly Lupron jab. I got my first erection in weeks (with Viagra) after my 2nd jab and was wondering if that was because of the Lupron jab a few days earlier.

Just joined the club no one wants to be a member of in April 2023 - can Gleason 9 be cured ?
The highest my PSA has ever been was 5.48 in December 2022 and it dropped to .09 with
Testosterone
of 14 in August two months after a shot of Eligard and 3 months of Casodex. Since then I have had 48 seeds planted via Brachytherapy and I am about to start EBRT.

Ferritin and folate levels
I now see a specialist in Leicester who has got a better idea and I now have hydrocortisone, growth hormone, estrogen and
testosterone
to replace the missing hormones. I take 87.5mg of T3 split over the day but the bulk earlier on in the day and less later in the day.

Stopped taking Orgovyx 7 months ago (T recovery only 80 baseline was 286 ) do I start TRT? am I risking Reoccurrence?
These are the 5 top opinions of my oncologists and mens health practitioners who deal with the "recovery" (or lack thereof
testosterone
issue ) at 4 different centers of excellence. 1. MO - "Start TRT right away - you are getting older and you will not get a reoccurrence". 2.

HRT and diarrhoea
The very good private hormone doctor I saw said HRT should balance my hormones and is a better way to increase
testosterone
than by giving
testosterone
(it did double after the first 3 months, still dire but seems positive so far).

Update: PSA after IMRT
Now it is 3 months later, and he ordered another round of PSA and
testosterone
tests. PSA is now .24, while T dropped a bit from 297 to 273. I am hoping that because the .12 was such a low number post-treatment, the rise to .24 still leaves me at a low enough level to not be worrisome.

Bp meds and libido in women (perimenopausal)
I’ve been on
testosterone
for my libido for about 7 weeks with little effect. I can pinpoint my libido falling off a cliff with starting Losartan. Is this a thing? Any other women who have found Bp meds affected their libido? Thanks

GP Visit and HRT worries 😰
My
testosterone
was within range (although in the lower 1/3 of the range…) but she reckons that adding oestrogen will help with things (like libido…) We agreed that I’ll come and see her in 2-3 months’ time to evaluate, or sooner if I have any issues.

Here we go.......
One percent of my adult life……Going with Orgovyx over Lupron as it avoids the
testosterone
spike, reached castration level suppression much faster, has less cardiac toxicity and
testosterone
levels return much more quickly at the termination of therapy.

L-tyrosine causes sebaceous hyperplasia?
I read that L-tyrosine increases
testosterone
, which leads to PCOS (which I have) and sebaceous hyperplacia. Did anyone experience this? How did you got rid of this acne?

Relevance of Testosterone Levels
On numerous occasions I have seen posts were people when replying have enquired what the individuals
testosterone
levels where, or that they should get them checked. Now we all know that
testosterone
feeds PC (and I assume that high levels even more so?)

Treatment and Prevention Strategies for Cognitive Function in PCa
Much higher doses can achieve castrate
testosterone
levels as a monotherapy per the PATCH trial. Did not increase adverse cardiovascular events as oral estrogens can (DES). Use the PATCH Trial results to convince your doctor(s). 2) Theracurmin.

hormone imbalance - any clues?!
I’ve been taking quercetin 400mg + Bromelain 100mg as a Natural Antihistamine - can this amount increase
testosterone
?
