ADT injection: Benefits worth the toll it will take on my body?

@jim18 Thanks!! Im in SE Asia but heading back to the States for about 6-7 weeks. But a trip to Canada, or any other country the meds are available for that difference in price! lol.
My doctor here says my PSA counts are very low so I shouldn't have the flares, etc.. And the plan is only the 2 injections....once every 3 months. I'll see how this first month or so goes. But if it isn't good then I'll probably switch over to the pills, if possible. Thanks for the information!!
PS - I've started a workout regimen and diet to try to combat some of the side effects. Looking at supplements, etc. to help with the nutrients.

Orgovyx sounds like a better less side effect ADT drug than the older Lupron. Comes in a daily pill form you can stop asap vs a three month shot with three months of side effects. Might want to have your doctor check into it……

Everyone that gets Lupron, without Casodex first, will get a flare. The doctor just does not seem well informed. I would be careful about information they pass on to you. Make sure you verify it elsewhere.
