Well if it improves or helps manage some of the ADT side effects, perhaps it’s worth it

Yes, but you have to have elevated glucose levels first.
Taking it for no diabetic purpose may not benefit you, but harm you.
You would really have to know what dosage you could safely take without becoming hypoglycemic, which is no fun either!

@hanscasteels A followup . I just googled the MAST Trial , which addressed my question .
I am not on ADT -- Active Surveillance only .
