Just one note about stopping ADT. You may want to get your first or second PSA test within a month or two.
I was on Lupron and Zytiga when I started a reduction in Zytiga to 750 mg from 1000 mg. My oncologist and I thought it might help with the brain fog.
In 18 days, my PSA went from .2 to 1. What I’m getting at is, for some people stopping the drugs can cause very quick PSA rises. Be aware that it can happen, Though the experience @kujhawk1978 had is much more common

I suggested that to my RO who said it was better to wait 6 months. The reason was that if the result was favorable - i.e. low psa - it could have been caused by residual Orgovyx in my system. He wanted me to wait 6 months before another psa test.
