So what would be causing them? I sweat at the drop of a hat. Well I'm new to all this and I'm not trying to question u because you know a hundred times more than me
You are on ADT. It usually reduces testosterone to below 5. That’s what causes the hot flashes. Even if you stopped ADT, it would take a while before your testosterone would come back and stop the hot flashes.

1 ReactionSo you talking about the elegard shots
No Orgovyx is ADT. As are the following drugs.
Firmagon, Lupron, Eligard, Prostap, Camcevi, Lucrin, Zoladex, Trelstar, Pamorelin, and Decapeptyl
Oops. Glad I included all the drugs. I was trying to do too many things at the same time.
I missread your comment as Erleada, Eligard is ADT.
Heck I live in Southern Louisiana and everybody sweats here it's so humid

2 ReactionsI live in Southern Louisiana also about 35 miles fromNew Orleans; it does get hundreds loving the cooler weather.
I do not have any constipation issues. I was a zofran for a while and did not drink enough water. I became so compacted I had to go to the emergency room. Luckily a fleet worked but I destroyed the bathroom. It was the worst. I also do not have a gall bladder and when I eat too much fat I get very loose stool. Stay hydrated. I have never heard that Nubeqa can cause constipation.

1 ReactionI have been on Nubeqa for 7 months and other ADT for longer. Never have constipation, but I eat a lot of fiber and hydrate a lot and exercise, which I would think would help.

1 ReactionWatch your blood ALT numbers with Nubeqa. Mine were good throughout a six course of Docetaxel, then the number shot up to 155. ( range should be 0-41.
