LHRH hormone deprivation treatment

Helle everybody

 

I've been undergoing hormone deprivation treatment for the last 12 months for advanced local prostate cancer. Thus far my PSA levels and testosorone levels are not detectible? I would like to stop treatment. Has anybody here any experience with this?

 

 

  • Hello Copperfield and welcome to Cancer Chat,

    Thank you for sharing your experience on our forum. I think that if you are considering stopping treatment, it is important to discuss this first with your medical team to see what they think and whether they think it is a good idea. I hope you will hear from others here who are or have been in a similar situation.

    If you want to talk about this to our nurses, feel free to ring them on this free number if you live in the UK 0808 800 4040 - their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm and I am sure they will be happy to answer your questions and advise you on what to do or point you in the right direction.

    Best wishes,
