I had an intermediate risk prostate cancer diagnosis in July 2024 and decided on radiation treatment. ADT was recommended after treatment, but I declined. The attached YouTube video explains recent research. It is titled: Intermediate-Risk: Do You Need Hormone Therapy With Radiation?

It is by Mark Scholz MD an oncologist that specializes in prostate cancer. (I also read the original research article that he discusses before making my decision.) No regrets so far. My PSA dropped from 14 before radiation to 6.83 three months later, to 4.18 after another six months to 2.12 just 13 months after radiation.
