Chemo Vs ADT
So this is possibly the dumbest question I have asked. But the knowledge on this forum is worth tapping into even for people like me who struggle with all the complexities of PC. So, - ADT suppresses PC but will not kill it. Chemo on the other hand finds the PC cells and kills them. So why do

SE from ADT and two natural remedies I always use. Anger=kava kava, insomnia=wild lettuce.
Hi fellow warriors, i am sharing this because after being an herbalist and wild medicine harvester there are two absolutely essential herbs i use to counter ADT side effects. Be advised I make my own so cost does not factor into how much or how often i take it. The most important is wild lettuce (

PSA post Salvage Radiation
Prior post: My husband, at diagnosis had 3+4 on a couple of samples and chose to have surgery. He had clean margins and reached undetectable PSA after Prostatectomy. Near the end of 5th year after surgery his PSA became detectable. He did salvage radiation at .09 PSA. His PSA went down to .08 after

Do I need 6th Pluvicto infusion? PSA undetectable for 6 months.
I've been on the PSMAddition trial having had 5 of 6th infusions. PSA undetectable (<0.02) since June (it was 0.31 in early May when accepted into trial with relatively low burden PSMA-avid lesions). Aug 4 CT/bone scans showed significant reductions in size and activity of lesions (prior to 3rd treatment

HRT question: how long did it take to feel the effects?
I have been struggling with crushing anxiety, insomnia, depression for a few months. It's unlike anything I have ever experienced. I started HRT last week, and am hoping for a little easing of symptoms soon! Just curious about other women's experiences. Please share!

PROTACs: another technique to help with mCRPC
I always wondered, if these protein degraders can basically destroy AR receptors, hence overcome both castration resistance and making the cells refractory to androgens...wouldn't it be useless to continue with ADT? Oh well... https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0753332222015013
