Why do we stop treatment
I have to post my experience of having once stopped treatment. I see various posts here with guys asking about stopping their treatments. I started treatment when I was 52 years old. ADT, Chemo and radiation. After treatment PSA went to undetectable. After 2 years with undetectable PSA I thought I was

Stage 4 endo diagnosed with emergency laparoscopy. Zoladex prescribed for 6m with follow up surgery after that. Seeking advice.
Hi everyone! I just stumbled across this website again and thought it may be a good place to seek advice from others who may have gone through similar events. So my story is a bit of an odd one. I’m 29 years old and I had always had heavier periods that were more on the painful side. But I was able

Worrying study on long-term ADT (esp Enza)
I just came across a study (2019 International Journal of Pharmacology) that suggests that long-term use of ADT can cause neuroendicrine differentiation, leading to rapid spread and more aggressive spread. (the article was actually about the use of propanalol to counteract the effect of NED, but the

Hey Y'all
Just stumbled across this site. I'm a MBC Thriver!! In July 2017 it was confirmed that I in fact had HR+ HER2- BC after years of mammograms and ultrasounds.

Zoladex, lupron, oophprectomy or…?
I tired Zoladex this last summer. It was torturous. My Onc said it would be a monthly shot. I got it. When I got home and looked at the chart notes from the nurse who administered it, it turns out they gave me the 3 month shot. overnight it was like all the anxiety I’d ever experienced in my life was

New Bone Mets Throughout Skeleton
I had a bone scan done and the results show new bone mets throughout my skeleton. My PSA has been climbing and is currently at 4.66. Looks like the cancer has worked around both the Zoladex and the Abiraterone. Not sure what is next. Apparently the oncologist that was treating me has left for a sabbatical

Hysterectomy after long term zoladex?
Hi there, I’ve been on zoladex for coming up 6 years now and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done for my endo. I have little to no symptoms but the one thing I can’t stand is being attached to my drs every 4 weeks. Can get tricky with work and holidays. I want to opt for a hysterectomy and just wondered

husband has been on Fenbendazole for 2 weeks with no adverse reaction, and has now come under an oncologist who has prescribed Biclutamide for 4 weeks and Zoladex injection 3 monthly. He has also been accepted into the trial of Xtandi. He was thinking about stopping the Fenbendazole as he was concerned

Zoladex Injection
I got injected with my first Zoladex yesterday. I wanted to know - how long did it take for it to start working? Also did people keep taking their contraception pills? Big thanks 💖
