My Glyson level is 9, and my PSA is currently 0.03. To avoid cancer resistance, I want to stop ADT for at least 3 months and stay on Erleada. Do you think this is a risky move? Could you share more details about your experience? I read your message with great interest. Thanks, friend!

Wish you luck with your decision. Get PSA test every three months for a couple of years, Sometimes the cancer comes back quickly. You had spread outside the prostate from what you’re saying in that can cause early reoccurrence.
You may have no problems.
If you have to go back on ADT consider using the estradiol patch. It works just as well as ADT, but it has many fewer side effects.
