Did you lose leg hair and arm hair during treatment?

Was on ORGOVYX for 18 months…. All leg hair, arm hair, chest hair and underarm hair GONE. Beard and head appear okay but starting to go bald because of my age (81). Good news is I’m still here🤪. After 44 radiation treatments and that damn ORGOVYX I’m in a weak condition. Can’t walk any distance because of leg pain even after going off ORGOVYX mid April. Hot flashes are less and less so that’s good. So all that being said the good news is we have less hair but we are still here and squeezing in as much fun as possible. Make the best of everyday. Wishing everyone here all the best. Stay strong. Ken

@kenporter #metoo 44 IMRT treatments and 18 months on Orgovyx, ending 3 weeks ago. Age 74. Another leftover is radiation proctitis; today is #14 treatment of 30 of hyperbaric oxygen therapy to encourage healing of rectal bleeding and bowel urgency/frequency. Hang in there!
