Also consider staying on orgovyx/abi indefinitely. Orgovyx is new enough that no long term studies say you can t. Sort of a puzzle. When I declined indescriminate photon bombardment of my guts the drs told me I would get resistant and cancer would explode. Not sure they can know that. Anyway I got the mayo radiologist to admit the the bombardment wouldn’t have any effect on Mets in my lymphatic system. Fell pretty good excepting various levels of fatigue.

Many people stop taking all ADT when their PSA stays undetectable for a long time. Staying on Orgovyx it’s pretty much the same to your body is staying on Lupron. Your testosterone never increases and you have all the side effects of the drug that near eliminates your testosterone.

I have to stay on Orgovyx or equivalent all the time (7 years now) because my PSA rises quickly without it. I have to live with brain fog, muscle, deterioration, and hot flashes. It’s good for people to get off of it, if they can.

Staying on Abi for more than four years, can lead to neuroendocrine cancer. Something they discovered recently and announced at the latest PCRI conference.

Abi also has negative effects on heart, Staying on indefinitely just continues to cause more problems. Another drug to get off if you can.

I wonder if you were just being sarcastic!!!
