Castrate levels of Testosterone
He's on quarterly
Zoladex
. I understand that castrate levels are ideally < 20 ng/100ml. If I understand correctly, his testosterone should be much lower. Can anyone please shed some light on this for me? Should he consider and orchiectomy?

Tibolone HRT offered for pain relief of Pudendal Nueralgia alongside 3 injections of Zoladex into the abdominal wall?
Hi everyone, I had a gynecologist offer me Tibolone HRT tablets alongside 3 injections of
Zoladex
into the abdominal wall 4x weekly. Looking these medications up I've seen a ton of side effects like most meds.

Timing of Docetaxel
For 2+ years have been taking
Zoladex
, Zytiga and Prednisolone. The CT bone scans and Nuclear medicine full body scans every 6 months show no radiographic progression and I feel ok, apart from fatigue when not active. Recently have some discomfort in left hip when climbing stairs.

how to take zoladex
hi everyone, I’m just a little anxious as I had my first
Zoladex
injection recently and my GP did not fill me with much confidence, he looked at my notes to find out the dosage and gave me the injection in my arm. I queried this as everything I’ve read said it went in the abdomen.

castration after 7 years of ADT
I have been on
Zoladex
for nearly 7 years and am fully over any regrets of Chemical castration. My psa is now slowly rising and ghastly taken 2 years from undetectable to 0.65.

Add back hrt with Zoladex
My op is next month, after another
Zoladex
implant. I’m minded to stop the
Zoladex
before the next is due (and hrt) given the ‘therapeutic trial’ of
Zoladex
has already guided the decision and the surgery is booked.

zoladex
. My fasting morning glucose is 7.2 (129.6) and my 2 hour after evening meal was 8.3 (147.6).

How to monitor PCa after you stop ADT?
I've been on
Zoladex
implants for coming up to 4 years in February. I plan to stop ADT next time when it's due, as my PSA is always "undetectable" and it's been 4 years of physical and mental torment for me (the side effects). I think that enough is enough now.

Similar question to Ezzedine. PSA rising
I had 37 sessions of EBRT and 3 years
zoladex
. Whilst under ADT and for 1 year after ADT conclusion my PSA was 0.01 (indecipherable) Then a year ago my PSA was 0.02, then 0.03 and last week it was 0.13. I have been given an F2F appointment with the urologist this next week.

Xeloda and Zoladex?
I asked my oncologist about whether I continue with monthly shots of
Zoladex
, which are administered by my GP, and she seemed a bit unsure, then said no. I left the hospital without much confidence and not understanding the logic, given that my cancer is still driven by oestrogen.

Zoladex delay
I’m wondering whether to postpone the 3rd
Zoladex
to the next week in case they decide I don’t need to have it anymore in the consultation and save me another month of
Zoladex
effects.

Adenomyosis, should I have hysterectomy?
After a year on
zoladex
since the ablation, the biggest ongoing issue for me is fatigue and sleep pattern. It is something which I know a lot of people report with the
zoladex
- so I am hoping would improve if I had the hysterectomy. Since I've been on it I have quite disrupted sleep.

BAT and Pluvicto?
Did well on
Zoladex
and Apalutimide for 2 1/2 yrs. with Mets to bones. Cancer has now spread to liver and pelvic lymph nodes. Docetaxel has failed and I am now waiting to hear if insurance will cover Pluvicto. Any thoughts on starting BAT now in case Pluvicto doesn’t happen?

At what point for scan ?
Zoladex
and nubeqa are the treatments that were started before chemo . Positive for BRCA2 with blood test . We do not have an oncologist in this province and the doctor has training and gets advice from oncologist in Vancouver Prostate Centre .
