Kind of different procedure than what I am going through. Had prostatectomy in 2014 after mri, biopsy, etc. Had rt 6 months later. PSA results after rt is < .06. Then another rt 4 yrs later due to rising PSA. In 2020 PSA was rising again, and still opted for “watching, but when PSA reached 5.5 in Oct 2024, I had a PET scan and the prostate cancer metastasized in different areas, and rt is not preferred for treatment, so I decided to have hormone therapy, Orgovyx. After 1 1/2 months of taking Orgovyx, PSA was down to .18, and In Feb 2025, my PSA was .1 but I plan to take it for a year. (My Hematologist told me to take it indefinitely.) I’m just wondering why you take Orgovyx before RT. I will be seeing my Hematologist in July and will request for PET scan if the cancer is still in my system, and will also ask to have Zytiga if it helps to kill the (remaining, if any) cancer cells. Hang in there, buddy. We will have this pass, too.
Thanks for the update. I completed my SBRT last Monday. My 1st post-radiation PSA will be mid-July. My libido was gone after 2 weeks on Orgovyx. I wish you well on your remaining treatments.
