Yes sounds familiar. The providers are very understanding. Honestly the drive is less but still there. Some like the no mess part. It freed up my mind so I'm not thinking about "it" 24/7. 5 years in remission. GET A PSA test at 45 and every other year after that.

Indeed, every man 40 years and older should get an annual PSA test! I went through prostate cancer 2021 fortunately, surgery was able to take care of the situation. No chemo no hormone therapy just surgery….
If caught early in many cases, it is survivable lifestyle certainly affects the potential for prostate cancer. Alcohol sugar are huge contributors to it. If I recall the percentages, it’s something like 60% of men will experience some sort of prostate issue in their life. Most don’t realize it until often times it’s too late. Again, get your PSA test taken annually. It’s a quick blood draw your out in a few minutes and it’s certainly worth making the effort efforts.

To explain the hormone therapy a bit ... Testosterone is the 'superfood' for prostate cancer, so Lupron is administered over a period of months to suppress the body's production of testosterone. It began to work gradually, and I came to understand what "hot flashes" are about. My nuts got smaller. But it starved the cancer just enough so the other treatments (radiation in my case) could work better. The Lupron eventually wore off, and the boys are back to full size.

Such a catch 22 because the biopsy itself is….
So learn more on how men are healing holisticly.
Allopathic medicine will lead you into a rabbit hole.
At least a hybrid of both natural healing and do labs.

I went through all of that 12-years ago. I had my Prostate removed via the Di Vinci Robotic. Simple no scars and fully healed in two weeks. It runs in the family, My brother was stuburn and watched it via PSA and yearly Biopsies for 4 years. He finally took my advise and had the Robotic removal. He was so happy and told me he should have done this 4 years ago
The rectal examines and biopsies are way worse than the surgery!!!
