What was your PSA after salavage radiation therapy and ADT?

I had 39 treatments of radiation for my recurrence, to my prostate bed. My PSA 3 months after that was 0.01. I stayed that way for 2 years and it started climbing again. I’m now on my 2 nd recurrence. My PSA is at 0.63. My doctors are waiting for it to climb higher before they start me on hormone therapy.

How long did it take for u to get to this current number.
In addition what level psa does your doctor indicate before u start an ADT.
Why are you not getting another scan to see if they can find the reoccurrence area? You can receive salvage radiation more than once.

Just a quick question, did you do the SRT on it's own without any ADT?
.and observation. If by hormone therapy you mean something like lupron or orgovyx (ADT) did they say why they wanted to wait? My docs started my ADT as soon as my climb was recognizable. (from .039 - .091). Or are you referring to some other kind of hormone therapy?
