Rising PSA years after radical prostatectomy

Recently (1 month) had a detectable PSA (.25) after 8 years of non-detectable. Met with oncologist who wants PET followed by radiation and hormone blocker (6 mo). Any thoughts on the importance of the hormone blocker?

I believe the Standard of Care treatment when you encounter recurrence is to combine 6 months of ADT with salvage radiation.
