@surftohealth88 I have inquired about Estradiol at three different cancer centers, including the one I get treatment from, and they are all willing to prescribe it. I don't think it is rare any longer. However, my MO says that the patients she has prescribed it for have reported severe fatigue.

Must admit that is a side effect. I’ve not heard of yet, At least from the people, I know that are on it. The fact is it reduces your testosterone down just like ADT and that can cause fatigue.
If you go over to the ancan.org Website and Search for estrodiol or Wassersug You can find one hour talks about going on estradiol. I will give you a better idea people’s experiences.

WOW ! Thanks so much for this info 🙏 , that is so encouraging !!!
Are you on the West or East coast ? Yes, estradiol has it's own SA but they are nothing in comparison with regular ADT - more so, estradiol IMPROVES bone density, cognitive function, causes more rapid testosterone decline , less fat gain, and improves insulin effectiveness - I mean - I have no idea WHY medical community is not jumping on those new findings in PATCH trail for god's sake 🙁 ???
