Does anyone who has Advanced Prostate Cancer been prescribed Orgovyx as lifelong treatment as I have?

How are you doing now @myash ? I started on Orgovyx March 26. I am not experiencing any of the side-effects yet.
After how many weeks in Orgovyx did you experience a side effect? I am concerned about dealing with the SEs (hot flashes especially) during my cruise with walking tours (excursions) on May 12 - 19, approximately my 7th week on ADT.

My side effects started 2-3 months in
Hot flashes, fatigue, forgetting things and bad dreams were most that I got. I definitely would not want to be on it long term, 6 months was plenty for me.

I was also told as soon as I started the Orgovyx to take calcium and vitamin D along with magnesium

My RO prescribed for me only Orgovyx, plus vitamin D. I asked by email if I can also take calcium. I am waiting for the response. When we meet in person, I will my RO again.
