Morgentaler Saturation Model: PSA vs Testosterone - Estrogen Patch vs Lupron ADT
This is a plot of % reduction in PSA from a Maximum Value versus Testosterone, for two different datasets: Estrogen Patch and Lupron ADT. Both curves (red and green lines) show a linear response starting from (0,0), up to about 200-250 ng/dL. Then, the lines curve over to a lower slope (especially

PSMA Scan to be scheduled - thank you Tall Allen
I want to thank Tall Allen for his suggestion that I see an oncologist. I had a RP followed by radiation in 2013. My PSA was undetectable until 2021, when it started to rise. This week I saw a radiation oncologist (whom I found through a friend) to ask him a lot of questions and to get his advice.

Effects of medications
I was diagnosed with PD about a year ago. I am of course interested in anything that is neuroprotective. I was told that only exercise is so I do that. Some believe that nicotine is so I have been on nicotine gum for several months. So far I have not noticed progression. My primary symptom is weakness

My rheumatologist treated me for a lupus flare as I had been in a similar situation years previous when first diagnosed with lupus. The dose of steroids did the trick and I was sent

Road blocks
Hi all,I thought I'd update you all. I went into hospital in the 20/02 to have my second last chemo before the BMT. Upon admission, I had a fever. After 4 days of fevers and a rash from head to toe, the doctors elected to postpone the BMT. So now the search is on to find out what drugs didn't agree

PSA doubled in last 30 days after 4 months stable since Provenge. What's next?
Update: PSA remained roughly 1.7 to 1.8 for last 4 months after Provenge but yesterday's 30-day PSA test revealed a jump to 3.190 so something is growing quick. I have been off of all ADT since finishing fourth LU-177 injection five months ago and one SBRT treatment 4 months ago. After LU-177, PSA

Is it PSA recurrence or not...
My friend had a radical prostatectomy a year ago. Since then his monthly PSA results were stable, at 0.006 3 months ago his PSA went from 0.006 to 0.012, then the next month to 0.029. His MO wanted to see the third month's results in order to consider salvage radiation therapy. Luckily, third month's

PSA vs Testosterone Nadir for CRPC and Non-CRPC
This plot from Safriadi (2022) compares the mean values of PSA nadir versus Testosterone Nadir comparing Non-Castrate Resistant PC (Non-CRPC) to Castrate-Resistant PC (CRPC) men. For Non-CRPC men, the range of T-nadir was 2.5-49 ng/dL (mean = 21) and range for PSA nadir was 0.02-9 ng/mL (mean=2). For

Medichecks Cortisol Saliva test
Hi, Ive received my Medichecks Cortisol Saliva test and was just wondering if it would work to take the test tomorrow and post on Saturday morning or would it be best to take it on Sunday and post it on Monday morning. Just worried that it might sit somewhere over the weekend if I posted it on Saturday

Mortality Probability after first PSA rise vs non-castrate testosterone levels (low vs Normal)
Here's a plot from Atkins (2018) that shows the Percent risk of Prostate Cancer-specific Mortality versus time following a first PSA failure, for two different non-castrate testosterone levels (Low-T and Normal-T). The low testosterone levels are: median = 162, range = 120-236 ng/dL. Normal T is 400
