Looks like you have a typo and I’d like to hear the right score

I am sure you didn’t mean Gleason 0+2. Was that supposed to be 4+3?

“Gleason 7 (3+4) on three of 14 cores, Gleason (0+2) on four cores”

GS 7 on 3 cores
GS 2 on 4 cores
Negative on 7 samples

Unfavorable intermediate said the urologist. The physician assistant at the cancer center said maybe it's because "not less than half of the 14 samples were positive." As a layman, I thought I was favorable intermediate, since GS 6 (3+3) is not cancer, why do the four (0+2)'s make me unfavorable? And so, I have to be on Orgovyx 8 months to a year, instead of 6 months only?
