Undetectable PSA is back
Yesterdays blood test shows PSA < 0.05 and
Testosterone
0.03. I restarted Lupron end of January, so it’s now six months. Would you recommend a total of 12, 18 or 24 months before the next holiday or continue „forever“?

Who is bothered most by ADT side effects and why?
Others report being overwhelmed by the side effects and look forward to a time when they might have their
testosterone
back in the normal range for males. But what accounts for this diversity in distress from ADT? A dozen researchers, mostly based in the USA, teamed up to find out.

Venesection and NAFLD and serum ferritin
High ferritin increases haemoglobin, it also damages the liver but also is caused by a damaged liver, it reduces
testosterone
(which may explain why I started having
testosterone
in the first place!)

The results also include
Testosterone
results which seem to suggest I'm doing fine (it was low in previous tests). I shall pass these results to a TRT clinic, but I think they are OK.

Testosterone gel pre-ivf
I’m just wondering if anyone has any experience of using
testosterone
gel prior to an ivf cycle? I’ll be starting my 3rd cycle soon, and I’m doing four weeks of
testosterone
first to help wake my ovaries up a bit first. I’ll also be using Meriofert as opposed to Ovaleap like my last two cycles.

healthy and fit 55 year old with advanced local PC
I am particularly worried that when my
testosterone
is lowered from the current level of 700 to almost nothing (if I choose the radiation option) this will seriously reduce my quality of life. I am a very active, energetic and driven person, and don't want to lose that.

Hormone sensitive after stopping Lupron?
If I stop ADT after 30 mo and my
Testosterone
stays at castrate level for 6mo, is this effectively the same as if I had 36 months of ADT?

T and PSA basically undetectable. Is adding testosterone or having a colonoscopy 3 years post treatment a good or bad idea for the elderly?
As to
testosterone
replacement, my uro has now reluctantly agreed to prescribe shots or jell to see if that might help with my energy level but plans to monitor every 6 months which I question as being enough.

Covid prior to ivf
I’ve just done 4 weeks of
testosterone
, a course of doxycycline and norethisterone in preparation. All I can seem to find from google is that it’s the severity of covid that affects sperm, not the virus itself. Neither of us are symptomatic now. No tiredness, no cough, nothing.

Hypothyroidism?
I have also read that low SHBG can (counter-intuitively) cause
testosterone
to be low. I have asked for a trial of Levothyroxine but this is currently being denied. One reason given is that they would expect my TSH to be higher, and therefore I do not qualify as having sub-clinical hypothyroidism.

Am I missing any options / pipeline developments that could allow me to stop HT?
I know I should count my health blessings re my PSA, my scans, my lack of symptoms, normal peeing etc but am missing my
testosterone
today.

27 months post 39 sessions of EBRT and completion of 3 years of ADT my PSA remains at <=0.08
My
testosterone
level has skyrocketed to an unbelievable 🔬2. Yes you read that correctly, just 2. I know that if it’s coming back, it could take 18 months to 2 years. I knew what I was signing on to at the outset.

Lu-PSMA-J591 Follow Up 8 Weeks Out.
And I am not showing any adverse response to the high
testosterone
cycles so far. Total
testosterone
on Orgovyx was 17.8 with 0.1 free T. Marrow toxicity is the main concern from Lu-J591 and some degree is expected. My response seems very mild.
