Starting Orgovyx - how long for side effects to occur?
Prostate Cancer | Last Active: 14 hours ago | Replies (50)Comment receiving replies
It was about one month before I started feeling anything different on Orgovyx. Hot flashes started at about one month. Weight gain at about two months. Fatigue at about two months. @jeffmarc is correct with the prescription for fatigue is exercise. Keep moving and push through the fatigue by doing something active or go to the gym, you'll feel better over all.
Now four months on Orgovyx and the hot flashes seem to be reducing in frequency. Hope it stays that way.

I noticed you have intraductal and cribriform. I was researching treatments for those combinations on Monday. Two people came into the ancan.org Weekly advanced prostate cancer online meeting with the same problem. I thought maybe radiation and brachytherapy might work but studies have shown it is not effective with that combination of problems. Actually, there were no studies at all that showed an effective treatment, if both of those issues were found. Hopefully the clinical trial you are in is coming up with some new ideas on treating it.
Good to see the side effects of ADT are getting better for you.
