Oh , they do take that in consideration !
Recovery from Orgovyx is faster but not immediate either. When we were considering adjuvant RO suggested "4 mos of ADT" with Lupron, but when my husband asked for Orgovyx he said "Oh, in that case you will need ADT for 6 mos " . So there you go ; ).
They know that men hate ADT and try to make is sound "less" than what it is which is ridiculous - that just causes confusion and later a mistrust with the whole protocol !
I am sure 100% that men would NOT refuse cancer treatment if they knew all the facts and IF some refuse that is their right to do so - as simple as that.

@surftohealth88 That may be true in some places. My brother that followed in my footsteps was told…6 months ADT, And it didn’t matter which drug he chose. I advised him to take the Orgovyx and no adjustment was made in duration.
