Anyone stopped Orgovyx and started again if PSA rises?

I know many people have that have done that. Some have stopped Orgovyx or Lupron, which works the same as Orgovyx, and a year, more or less, later, they have had to go back on it. it is possible you could be cured but a lot of it depends on your diagnosis.

I am surprised they didn’t do salvage radiation. Normally they do that after the prostatectomy when your PSA rises above .2. I guess the clear PSMA scan was why they didn’t do it.

What was your Gleason score after the surgery? Were there any other complications like intraductal or cribriform? if you had high Gleason, above seven, or the other two complications then it is very likely it will come back. The thing is no two people are the same so you can’t tell someone exactly what will happen to them.

Yeah, I thought radiation after BCR was standard.
