ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium (postdiagnostic Metformin and Statin use & PCa mortality)
Note that one should be clear that Metformin users & Statin users represent populations that may have PCa risks quite different from the general PCa population. For instance, while diabetics have a reduced risk of PCa, they have increased PCa mortality risk, albeit lowered in Metformin users. Studies

Please help...
Hi all I would be grateful for any advice please. My symptoms are: Fatigue, muscle/joint pain, can't get warm, no sex drive, puffy eyes in am, no weight loss since June 2017 and occational palpitations. My diet is nutritious but as I have PCOS so calorie intake is 1365 which should enable weight loss

Advice on Supplements needed
Do not know where to order the Modified Citrus Pectin from also curcumin and any other supplements for my husband. Please advise. I wish I could just find a list and amount without having to dig. This is so overwhelming. From what I’m reading I also believe my husband has the ductal form since he

Opinion on radiation to bone mets.
My husband, Jeff, is Stage 4 metastatic, G9 with 11 bone mets. History : RP 9/13/17 (PSA was 52), pathology showed "involvement" in two of the four lymph nodes that were removed. First ADT injection was 9-27-17 (Eligard). This was all that could/should be done according to the urologist/surgeon.

Change of medication
Hi I'm type 2 have been on 500g Metformin for 6 years. My nurse changed my perscription to Sukkarto SR 500g . I've been taking them for 2 months. My weight has dropped 8 pounds! I feel so much better and my readings have improved too. Has anyone else experienced this with a change of medication?

Thinking about coming off metformin...
I was put on metformin a couple of years ago to help with my PCOS and regulate my periods. I take 1 500mg tablet a day and I’m just thinking about stopping it altogether and seeing what happens. Does anyone have any advice on this please, should I or shouldn’t I??

It's not all bad news
Hi there, Just joined. I just wanted to say some of the things that have really helped my pcos and my general health. I'm luck enough to have to young boys, both conceived after taking metformin. I've taken up running! Something I never ever thought I would be able to do, I was always last at any school

Adding PARP inhibitor (Olaparib) to the Standard Therapy (Zytiga/ADT/Prenosone)
I had an interesting and unexpected conversation with my "second opinion" MO. I went to see him regarding adding Metformin to my list of medications (He's a well known expert - more on Metformin later), but the focus of the conversation turned into adding Olaparib to my existing treatment regime of Zytiga

Is this more serious than what i think it is?
Ever since I was born I had constipation problems. I still get constipated a lot. I try taking laxatives to help but it makes my anal saw. I went to bed last night with extremely painful cramps like period cramps but I just finished my period. I’ve tried changing diet aswell but that doesn’t help.
