The paradox of testosterone and ADT
Prostate Cancer | Last Active: 1 day ago | Replies (92)Comment receiving replies
I had my last Lupron shot end of September 2024 and quit taking abiraterone and prednisone (with doctors agreement) in January 2025. So it has been 7 months since last Lupron shot. Just had my testosterone tested on 4/21/2025. My level is < 7. I have been very weak in the legs and tire quickly. Will my testosterone levels ever rise so that these side effects will stop?

How long did you stay on Lupron and Abbie? For some people, it takes as long as they were on it to recover their testosterone. Some people never recover it, depending on how long they had been on it, That’s true in my case it seems since I was on it for eight years.
The older you are though longer, it takes to come back. My brother had Six months of Lupron At 76 and it took him over a year for his testosterone to get above 200.
