I have been on Orgovyx for six months. My Radiation Oncologist is doing the second process of High-Density Radiation HDR is telling me that after the last treatment of HDR on the 23rd of May I can stop using Orgovyx . He stated six to seven months is the max to use it. I have had two other radiation Oncologists say the same "six to seven months" max.
However, a General Oncologist told me two years. Mmmm I am going to stop taking it on the 23rd.
I think their main concern is the damage to my bones. I am 76.
A little backup info in 2019 I went through 45 external beam radiation treatments and was on Lupron. The cancer came back a few years ago so the HDR treatment is now being done. I chose the HDR because of the higher percentage of success. 90 to 95% success with HDR vs 80 to 85% External Beam Radiation.
My old urologist had recommended the external beam back in 2019. I will never see him again because he recommended Cryotherapy this time around. almost nobody uses cryotherapy anymore.
I believe that an Oncologist "trumps" whatever a urologist suggests. If you have cancer listen to or see a cancer doctor.
"Positive Attitude" is very important!! as previously stated!
