Estradiol patch prescriptions

Hi all
I haven't been on this site for awhile. I left ADT treatment over 4 months ago and I am relying solely on estradiol patches to keep my cancer in check. I had a full course of radiation (28 days) and a TURP instead of a prostatectomy to ease my urinary problems. So far I am certainly feeling better, and my PSA and testosterone levels are undetectable for two months. I have been using three patches of 0.1 estradiol weekly. My last test for estrogen levels showed I have a level of 84. I am not sure if this is an adequate level or if I should have any changes to my prescription to raise these levels. Does anyone have some ideas as I am no longer with Dr Ng and can't get a clear answer from my local oncologist.
Thanks to everyone, and good luck
Gary Wade

I’m not sure of the answer, but this site is designed to help people that have prostate cancer and use estradiol.
