Thanks. My readings were all around the -2.5 range, with a couple over -3 and none higher than -1.5. The reason the doctor is suggesting a bone building medication is that my testosterone started to come back (was in the 300s) but now is dropping again (in the 100s) instead of increasing and he thinks I may have testicular failure. I'm noticing all the old ADT symptoms starting to come back even though I haven't taken Orgovyx in 5 months. They're still not as bad as before except the mental ones but I think that's just me feeling crushed by yet another setback.

scottbeammeup,
with those T scores, I'd ask for an anabolic. It simply builds better bone and faster. You can completely circumvent the effect of testosterone loss on the bone with Tymlos or Forteo.
When your testosterone levels rise again (and I feel certain they will), you probably won't need the anabolic. The anabolics are a little inconvenient because they are a daily injection with a tiny needle. I'm on Forteo and consider it an amazing medication.

How long were you on Orgovyx?
