Urologist said I could stop Orgovyx. Your thoughts?

Been off Orgovyx for a week. Is it overly optimistic to hope for a total reduction of the Orgovyx side effects I've experienced after 20 months of daily dosages ( loss of libido, ED, brain fog, genitalia shrinkage) while also hoping for an increase in testosterone and a continuing concomitant PSA level of .04 or less?

@johnny8924 Yes as your testosterone returns. Night erections told me my testosterone was coming back to normal, also libido. As far as shrinkage it will stop but recovery can be slow.

PSA will probably increase since you still have a prostate. Typical is < 0.5 then decreasing over time (lower is better). It should not be increasing after the initial bounce from the ADT removal. The PSA results should be monitored by your RO and/or urologist to make sure the cancer is not coming back.
