Is this normal on ADT? Body hair gone

For me personally the thing I notice most is hot flashes. Initially, they were very bothersome, but they’ve become manageable over the past five months. The second thing I’ve noticed is loss of muscle tone and mass. I do resistance training 4 to 5 days a week and that helps stem the loss. I recommend doing that.

Loss of libido and ED also go hand in hand for most men that I’ve talked to.

Good luck on your journey.

Thanks Robert. I still haven't gotten a hot flash. I guess I'm lucky? I've been working out fanatically since starting ADT. Sometimes I wonder how good I would look if I had worked out 2-2 1/2 hours a day when I *wasn't* on ADT. I haven't made any gains at the gym or with bicycling but I also haven't lost much so I consider that a small win.

My problem is that I still have a decent libido, no ED with the help of Viagra but complete and total anorgasmia which means sex just leads to frustration.

Thanks for your reply. I did see your comments did not mention any joint pain. Is that a correct statement ? Fortunately I do palities twice per week for an hour
so that most likely will help me to keep in shape. Thanks
