TURP and Prostatectomy
I am looking at a prostatectomy, but I had a TURP 8 yrs ago. How does this change the risk factors and my potential quality of life for a prostatectomy? If I did radiation therapy, they would like me to have another TURP to remove some of the prostate that is growing into the bladder before starting

HRT and diarrhoea
I started HRT at 49 a few months back, not due to menopausal symptoms, but because I found my testosterone to be at the very bottom of range. The very good private hormone doctor I saw said HRT should balance my hormones and is a better way to increase testosterone than by giving testosterone (it did

Perimenopausal and should I take hrt?
Hello, I am trying to assess whether I am perimenopausal or if I just have the usual under active thyroid symptoms. I'm 42 and struggle with the following symptoms...no sex drive and loss of ongoing dryness, headaches on one side of my head with constant tinnitus on this same side, tiredness and mood

Natural FET possibly cancelled
I had a failed fresh transfer at the beginning of June. The plan was made to try for a natural modified FET this month as my cycles are regular and the risk of prenatal hypertension with a hormone FET was not ideal for me. I had my day 10 scan on Thurs and my dominant follicle was already 14.5mm but

I don't seem to have much in the way of symptoms. I took motion classes but they said you're fine, come back when you have a problem. I took acupuncture sessions til they said come back when you have a problem. MY problem is the neurologist wants to take my license. I failed a driving test that didn't

Radiation
I had the standard IMRT for my pca back in 2013. I was told it was a lifetime dose. Is that true with the newer forms of radiation treatment? I am faced with starting a six dose regimen of taxotere now since ADT does not seem to be working according to PSMA scans. My psa remains at 1.8 even though the

Radiation for Salvage Treatment
I am about to start salvage treatment after a failed surgery and a rising PSA value of 0.1. However, I would like to know if weeks of external radiation with ADT, is the best treatment option here. The idea of blindly radiating pelvic area with a re-recurrence a few years later does not appeal to me.

Update on my father
I just wanted to post a quick update on my father. He has metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. He’s been on ADT - Eligard shots every 3 months and prednisone + zytiga everyday. It’s challenging as I work with him and see all the ins and outs of his behaviour while on those meds. He remains
