It will work. Avoid the next one. Get Orgovyx, or if your insurance company is delaying it get a 3 Month Lupron or Eligard shot. It has no more side effects, I got them for six years and never really noticed the shot, unless I pressed right on the spot they put it in the first day. It goes in your upper thigh/hip.

That way after three months, you can probably get yourself on Orgovyx.

Hey Jeff. I'm sure you answered this somewhere in the history of this forum but ... did you ever become castrate resistant after 6 years?

We are hoping to transition to Orgovox but local GU Onc is concerned insurance won’t approve - what is this about? Seeing the charge for Firmagon injection/insusioncenter visit is $6k+ each time, is Orgovix pill rhat pricey? I do know the Nubeqa is nuttyhigh price.
