Has anyone done ADT for prostate cancer? My doctor has recommedned that I go through this procedure along with salvation radiation therapy and I am a bit worried. I have hated needles since a young age and doing 6 rounds of injections is not something that ranks high on my list. Can anyone who has gone through this guide me with regard to its effectiveness and also about side effects. I know there are hot flashes involved.

Please message me if you have any info

Hi @jonlo11 ,

How are you today?

Committing to new treatment is always scary and uncertain. I will tag a few members who may have some personal experience with ADT who can share with you.

What treatment have you done for your prostate cancer? Have done Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT)? What about salvation radiation therapy? Did you have side effects?

Let's share!

Take care,

Somya from the Carenity team 🌼
