@jeffmarc Thanks for the article, Jeff…that study is a long time coming!
Quick question: What about your own situation? You are -ahem- not a young man and you have been on various forms of ADT for many years.
You’ve mentioned trying to go off ADT, but had a rise in PSA so had to resume…
Is it simply a case of choosing the lesser of two evils?

@heavyphil
Because of my BRCA2, my oncologist says I shouldn’t let my testosterone Above 50, So I had to go back on ADT.

Didn’t have a rise in PSA at all, Just testosterone went up pretty quickly after being on ADT for eight years.
