It’s too early for you to stop taking ADT. If you have many years with undetectable PSA, then dropping ADT early can make sense. I stopped ADT after eight years because it’s unlikely for my Testosterone to come back.
If ADT keeps your PSA undetectable, then you really don’t wanna change anything.

I want my testosterone to return while keeping my PSA low in order to have returning strength with a more normal quality of life. I won't know whether the cancer has been eliminated until I stop ADT or my PSA starts rising regardless, indicating castrate resistance and the time to begin using or adding Darolutamide. Or am I missing something?

Thx - but I don't see myself on ADT for many years (wow 8 years for you). I think my plan with my oncologist is to see how things are at 18 months with ADT. Then if numbers look good, I will stop. Of course, with monitoring of all levels or any tests my oncologist, endocrinologist, PCP, or other providers I currently see recommend I will do.
