urologist and radiation oncologist aren't on the same page

“ Per my urologist and R/Os the hormone treatments do not kill your prostate cancer. The inhibit from growing.” Interesting. My urologist and M/Os stated that ADT starves the cancer and it dies. Are these word choices a reflection of our doctors’ biases and the direction they’d like us to go, or is there a factual discrepancy?

No, two people are the same. Some people on ADT have their tumors shrink dramatically others not so much. I’ve heard of more than one case where the drugs have allowed tumors to shrink to the point that they are not visible on a PSMA pet scan.
