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

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.

Timing of Dexamethasone
I've been on ADT since 2017 and approximately 3 years ago I switched from prednisone to .5mg dexamethasone daily with morning meal. I have been having periods of infrequent lightheadedness. I have been through a series of tests and my pcp cannot determine the source. Can I switch my dose of dexa from

New hot flash drug approved
The FDA today approved Veozah (fezolinetant) for women's hot flashes during menopause. It acts on the thermoregulatory mechanism in the brain. I would expect it to work on men taking ADT too, although it has not been proven. I hope that Medicare/Insurance will cover it in men. https://www.fda.gov/news-events
