Vacation time again
I had the follow up appt with my MO. My PSA is down a notch to 0.2. We decided to follow the original plan of intermittent ADT and I’m starting another ADT vacation. This round of ADT had started with minimal SE’s but in the last month or so it’s gotten worse. My energy level has noticeably decreased

New member with lots of questions about levo and NDT
Last summer, I went to a private clinic where they prescribe
NDT
(Erfa) and other hormones. Taking
NDT
has not led to the huge improvement I expected, and I am currently at my wits´end. While some symptoms have improved on Erfa compared to levo, others have emerged.

adrenal care using the sun
hi I am trying to tolerate
NDT
with not a lot of success. Has anyone ever tried using the sun to regular their cortisol? (Ie. Watch sunrise and go to bed at sunset) instead of shovelling a load of ACE, liquorice root etc etc. in? Keen to hear from any one thanks in advance 🙏🏻😊

ART ASCO GU 2023: Testosterone Recovery Following Androgen Suppression and Prostate Radiotherapy (TRANSPORT)
There are many studies that show TET recovery for men treated with RT and ADT. Most show delay is correlated to the time spent under ADT treatment. I have seen some posts that purport 5 year [u]average timeframes[/u]; this appeared excessive. This study provides better data and timeframes that are

thoughts on virtual second opinions
Hi all,My dad was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer about 5 weeks ago. He is 65 years old. His current MO has him on a zoladex injection and next ADT has yet to be added. I was looking into getting a second opinion at MD Anderson, Mayo and Sloan Kettering. I noticed that all offered

Cardio performance abrupt decline
Currently on Orgovyx for the last 18 months with very little side effects due to wrestling, lifting weights and hiking. Then suddenly four days ago, only a block from the beginning of my daily 2.5 mile hike my energy unexpectedly ran out. I pushed forward another block assuming I could shake off whatever

First psa test was 0.1, month later psa 0.8 month later psa 0.22 Psa remained at 0.22 for next 3 months.My urologist who did RP said it could be "reactive lymph nodes". A CT scan and bone scan revealed nothing

Is there hope? I’m dreading asking the question of “how long”…
My father was diagnosed in September ‘23 with a PSA in the 900s. It had already metastasized throughout his body in several parts of his bones (ribs, spine, hips, femur and a spot at the base of his skull) but no organs had been affected other than his prostate. We were hopeful when it began to climb

RO Advice for Salvage Rad
One of the ROs I've had a consult with wants to do salvage rad soon (Post-RP PSA is north of 0.1). However, he wants do the SRT w/o ADT. His rationale is that if we do ADT concurrently, there's no way to tell if the SRT was working. Plus, he says that if the SRT fails, then I'll be in the same boat

Blood test update
Following on from my first private blood test in May, I went private and started
NDT
in June. Moving forward to date, retested this week and the results are disappointing and I still do not feel myself. Results are posted below. Any advice, much appreciated.
