@brianjarvis My experience was substantially the same, except I had 6 months of Orgovyx, but also 28 proton sessions. Very few side effects. Biggest was no libido, not sure about ED since I had no libido, but no ED now 3 months post Orgovyx. My testosterone went from 6 to 110 one month after stopping ADT. I had a few "warm" flashes but that was about the only other SE. I also ran and lifted throughout the treatment, and as with Brian it was something I had been doing regularly before so it wasn't hard to keep it up. All men have different experiences but from the readingI've done, and experiences of men on this forum, exercise seems to the key to reducing SE.
