I’ve been taking it for almost 8 months, best side effects is low
testosterone
and PSA! Are there others? Probably but is it Xtandi or any one of the other meds I take to fight this disease.

5 months on from initial diagnosis
Mid June PSA down to 0.19 (20/1/21 = 64.7, 18/5/21 = 0.33) and first
testosterone
measure <0.5 (normal range 7 - 26). All other blood indicators in normal range except red cell (4.11 v. 4.5 to 6.5), estimated GFR (69 v 90 to 120 but compares to 61 0n 7/1/19).

Welcome Back Mr. T
Despite having my prostate removed in July 2019, my
testosterone
remained at a health 409. In Dec. of 2019 I began a series of 3 month Lupron injections that ended after a year. The entire time I was receiving the injections my
testosterone
level remained at 6.

My journey with PCa
Not wanting to play Russian roulette with cancer, I elected to have whole pelvic 40 SRT sessions and ADT treatment ( 6 mos Lupron with my
testosterone
at 469.4 ng/dL before injection). I finished my radiation about month ago and two weeks ago had ultra sensitive PSA and
testosterone
tests.

Help for Husband
I mean he's been told that his
testosterone
production has been stopped because that feeds the cancer. But for some reason that word set him off. I feel horrible. I feel like I set back his progress in fighting this. As men, is there anything I can say to fix what I did??

Optimal testing regimen
Cell Search technology, will change to Biocept and/or ISET as these are more sensitive) If this goes down well with doc I will add the following, as second level importance, perhaps they are enough to do every six months (nr 10 more often, monitoring an attempt to improve the lymphocyte count): 5

Is it true that Testosterone is not the culprit causing Advance Prostate Cancer, Estragon is?
Ray Schilling (https://www.askdrray.com/whats-new-about-
testosterone
/) that claims
Testosterone
is not the culprit causing Advance Prostate Cancer, Estragon is. He also claims that ADT is an outdated therapy. Is Dr. Schilling right?

Starting round 2 this cycle
We’re adding
testosterone
on day 15 and adding in an extra trigger shot. Dr said we should be able to achieve a proper pregnancy within 3 rounds so that is what we are giving ourselves even though we can’t afford it 😔 🤞🏼🤞🏼 That this round works.

Hormones not recovering
Unfortunately my
testosterone
level is <0.4 nmol/L when normal is 8.4 - 28.8 nmol/L. Should I ask for
testosterone
injections or just be patient?

Female sex hormones and prolactin
I've also had zero sex drive for about 5 years now and grow beard hair at certain times of the month although seemingly
testosterone
is not the issue like I thought it might be.
