Based on what you’ve told me, I think you’re going to handle ADT well. I’m taking Orgovyx instead of Lupron depot shots and have done better with less side effects than my friends who took Lupron. Because you’re so active you may want to consider that and ask your doctor about Orgovyx.

Wishing you the best for your journey.

I can attest to what Robert said. I started with Lupron and it sent me into the most soul crushing depression I've ever experienced. Fortunately, I insisted on one month shots instead of six month. I switched to Orgovyx and just over two months later am doing MUCH better. Plus, I no longer have to deal with the monthly sciatica I'd get for a week after each Lupron shot.
