You are right. I started orgovyx in 2021. I was just estimating the years. PSA has been 0.02 and testosterone < 3 for years. Also i do work out regularly 5 days a week . I used to lift but now i have been doing cardio only. Alternate between treadmill and elliptical. Oh by the way, I’m an old dude, 75 yo. The biggest battle I’ve had was losing weight while on ADT. Finally managed to lose 45lbs this year. I have 20 more to go. I found it extremely difficult to lose weight. I just became a fat producing machine even with working out. Question: if testosterone rises is it an automatic that I’ll have to go on Orgovyx again? Thanks so much for your response.

Congratulations on losing so much weight. After eight years on ADT I never have gained weight. Gained 4.5 pounds last year thanksgiving and Christmas, took 3 months to lose that little.

Weight exercises are extremely important. ADT destroys your muscles Can you get off the floor without assistance? I had to go to the gym three days a week for four months in order to get my strength back so I can get off the floor.

Check out videos on YouTube about exercise with Robert Newton, he’s worked heavily with prostate cancer patients.

Here’s one of his videos
