Considering Tulsa Pro or Proton radiation (full gland)

@jeffmarc, Never heard of Cowpers glands. I don’t know there was much fluid, but more than I expected which was none. I guess my concern was that the radiation treatment might not have worked.

@robertov You should get a PSA and total testosterone blood test at 3 months after the end of ADT, so about 3 weeks from now. That will tell you how your radiation worked and how you recovered from ADT. PSA should have been below .1 on ADT but it is common for it to increase up to .5 after short term ADT ends (as always lower is better). A study showed higher risk or recurrence if PSA bounced higher than .5.
And yes, if there was a little fluid it was probably the pre-CUM from the Cowpers glands (not treated). Almost everyone has dry organisms after radiation.
