Orgovyx and the timeline for return of normal testosterone level

The purpose of ADT(Orgovyx, in my case) is to reduce the testosterone which feeds the cancer cells. If I stop ADT and testosterone does not recover or PSA stays low, why should I be taking ADT at all. Can't I enjoy the drug holiday until PSA reaches some level then do PSMA scan to determine cause and treat ?

Hey alperk, that really depends. What is your situation? What initial treatment did you have - and for what Stage? That really determines how long you should be on ADT, not just the fact that it lowered your T and PSA.
