Is it necessary to continue enzulutimide when PSA continues falling

Intermittent ADT is continuous treatment unless side effects or PSA rises due to prostate cancer cells adapting. Continuous ADT keeps prostate cancer from recurring so long as prostate cancer cells do not adapt or mutate resistance to chemical castration.
I was on Firmagon 2 years ago for 4 months but stopped to do Pluvicto PSMA-PET when PSA rose.
Now on Orgovyx as continuous ADT, and in fifth month. After fourth month PSA .1. Hopeful indetectable this month after every 30 day lab.

Thanks for response. So what happens when you reach 0.1 or undetectable? Are they the same, BTW? It seems the docs are saying there is no cancer PSA gets to 0.1 or below. Just wondering.
