What stage is your cancer at? There's strong evidence to support ADT holidays for non-metastatic prostate cancer, and maybe even localised spread (not sure about the latter). Taking ADT holidays at stage 4 is more controversial, but still, it's very much a personal and reasonable decision.

At diagnosis and surgery-- Stage 4a, Gleason 9, Decipher .99.

Surgery then radiation and ADT. PSA < 0.01 for over 2 years.

Comorbidities are diabetes type 2, high blood pressure, and reduced kidney function (eGFR ~40). On medication for all.
