Just dropping Orgovyx would probably be a good thing to try now. Check with your doctor and make sure. Usually, when somebody has gone that long undetectable, they can stop and see if Their PSA will stay down.

You would find that Nubeqa has really no side effects, but can keep your PSA down for a long time. I know a lot of people in their late 70’s and 80s that are only on Nubeqa Because it works so well.

I have been on Orgovyx and Nubeqa for almost 3 years. I stopped Orgovyx For eight months and my PSA still stayed undetectable. I had no side effects during that time. My testosterone kept rising, so my oncologist wanted me to go back on Orgovyx since I have BRCA2.

Get PSA test every three months to make sure your PSA is not rising. Your testosterone should start coming back when you stop Orgovyx

@jeffmarc I've been on Nubeqa for four months. I have intense hot flashes, especially at night. Fatigue is quite noticeable. My oncologist said the first two months are rough but that side effects should lessen after that. Hasn't happened.
