Anyone here after ADT undergone TRT

I was in the same position after a pause in eligard. For over a year my T levels and PSA stayed at zero, but I felt like crap. I was also anemic . I had TRT after that, and my serum T levels hit 1000! So I gradually reduced my T injections to the smallest increment I could see on the syringe, .01 cc. And my T levels dropped to 70, my blood values stayed in range, and my PSA. Stayed 0. That lasted another year til my PSA began to rise.

It seems once eligard turns T production off, in me the natural T production never returned.

Hi, kenk1962 - My TT went from 480 to 117 then up to 129 or so, so not castrate level. PSA 8.6/7.8 to 3.2 So I get the side effects, a bit less intense, without as much ADT protection, and having a scary Gleason level (9)..

Starting PSA levels were 10 weeks pre-MRI,biopsy, two levels taken about a month apart. 117 and 3.2 were one month post ending TRT, not measured since.
