What's your experience with Orgovyx (relugolix)?

Orgovyx recommended due to:
Faster Testosterone reduction.
Better cardiac side effect profile.
Quicker Testosterone recovery post treatment.
However, Orgovyx can be costly.
Other hormone treatments such as Eligard are highly regarded and might be less costly.
I am in my 3rd week of Orgovyx, with minimal side effects so far; some warm flushes and a bit of feeling "off", which may be diminishing.
Good luck with your decision and treatment.

I'm in my 8 month, the flushes have mostly disappeared. Maybe once a week at night I'll notice one. I've developed a small "Lupron Belly" but keeping it in check with diet and exercise.

The only other thing is the fact that my testicles have shrunk up to nothing. I'm setting up a full blood panel to see what else it may be doing, just have gotten to it yet.

It's expensive but luckily my insurance covers it.
