Is this normal on ADT? Body hair gone

For me, insomnia, loss of body hair, nausea/weight loss and anorgasmia. I've been lucky and not had the hot flashes so many other guys talk about. The weight loss was good in the beginning--I lost the 15 pounds I gained during the pandemic, but since then have lost 20 more and am starting to look gaunt.

Thanks for sharing your comments. Much appreciated

Scott, Your reaction to the Orgovyx only underscores the fact that we all react differently to the same treatment or drug.
Losing weight on ADT is not common at all, nor are severely shrunken testicles and anorgasmia. But just as these changes have been dramatic while on the drug, there is good reason to believe that they may just as dramatically ( or gradually) reverse once you’re off of it. Your RO is probably as perplexed as you are. How much longer will you be on ADT?
