Interesting. This looks like seeds + ERBT is the winner for my husband's risk group. But that was not offered to him as a treatment without 2 years of ADT - and he is unwilling to do the ADT

That graph looks definitive, but I'm sceptical about the varied nature of the studies it's based on...age, quality, numbers. So hard to compare apples to oranges. I think individual FEELINGS, like an aversion to chemical castration, are important, as well as population based survival percentages. We all die, how we live until then is a valid consideration.

We're each a case study of one, and no population based study can say what will happen to any given individual...
