Liver information
I had my blood sent in to be checked out and it came back that I was low in
testosterone
. My doctor ordered
testosterone
injections. I'm on my second one. I think my liver caused the
testosterone
issues. Do my question is this.

Waiting for Mr. T
Blood tests were great, PSA and
testosterone
still undetectable. My MO decided to cancel my Eligard injection, mostly out of concern for my bone density (which became a problem last summer), and to let my
testosterone
recovery start sooner. (I'll still be on Abiraterone for 3 more months.)

Testosterone recovery after stopping ADT - 3
The curves show that a short course of ADT allows men to recover their
testosterone
faster those who were on a long course of ADT.

Testosterone Recovery: Orgovyx vs Lupron, Part-I
Here's plot from a 2020 paper in the New England Journal of Medicine by Neil Shore, et al. that shows Orgovyx has much faster "ON" and "OFF" changes in
testosterone
levels, compared to Lupron. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32469183/

A question about hot flashes
If it is from the low T, if I monitored (recorded) the hot flash frequency, would a decrease indicate a direct increase in
testosterone
?

Testosterone was slowly recovering after stopping all meds 8/10/2023 then started dropping!
While free of all drugs (Orgovyx, & LU-177) since August,
testosterone
had slowly rose to 152 then declined then a month later to 135, then 129 and a few days ago dropped to 39.5 Assumption was made that Xtandi blocked cancer receptors but did not lower
testosterone
.

Watching and waiting
Testosterone
level went from 14 to 117. The doctor reassured us that it’s good that his
testosterone
level is going back to normal however, didn’t we do the ADT to keep that from happening? Should we be concerned. And is there anything else we should do other than wait for another six months?

Xtandi/Orgovyx Combo & Heart Rate
I am oligometastatic - one lymph node - and PSA is 0.07 with
testosterone
at 9.63. I am not castrate resistant. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced slowing heart rate (bradycardia) on this combo. (I also take Myrbetriq which may be contributing to a slower heart rate.) Thanks.

Has anyone taken Relugolix from start and no injections of ADT ?
How soon does it bring the
testosterone
levels down as compared to the injections ? I am in India and it is available here at around 100 dollars for a box of 30 tablets of 120 mg each

Prostrate Cancer treatment ADT
This stops
testosterone
production. Had a bone scan and found I have osteopenia. I am taking a calcium citrate with vitamin D. Also once per week Alendronate 70mg. Has anyone else been in the same boat? Thanks

testosterone
(which is the biologically active form) was only 4.3 (normal is 7.2-24).

Eligard (Lupron) vs. Zoladex
The PSA went down from 2.25 to 0.18, and
Testosterone
went down to 23 from 1080. Why Eilgard not works and Zoladex work??? The are same drug which removes testosteron????? I thought Zoladex is used for women and Lupron works for men? is that not true????

Casodex - stop or continue ?
I thought casodex is given to prevent the
testosterone
flare as it helps reduce
testosterone
but I see some comments on this forum saying it can over time turn into feeding the cancer ???? Any thoughts or experiences on this ?
