Hot flashes 3 months after Eligard?

Hot flashes are due to low testosterone levels. They should be kept at castration levels (less than 50 mg/dL) to keep the cancer under control. I am off Eligard . Still have hot flashes. Reason? My T levels at 21.

I did express my concern to the RO staff yesterday. I was told that the Eligard will still stick around in me until about June, so the T level will remain low and I guess I'll be prone to the hot flashes until the summer, as the level returns to "normal".

My concern was not that I was having them, which I fully expected. It was more of a "why now after all this time" thing.
