HRT (Male) treatment for Prostate Cancer

Offline Circus over 5 years ago

Since starting HRT treatment, for Prostate Cancer, I have had severe sweats / flushes.

May I please ask, if any one has used either of the following treatments and found them to reduce the sweating / flushes ?

Medroxyprogesterone.

Cyproterone.

Thankyou for you're time.

Hi circus.
Been on medrozyprogesterone for over four years now it really helps, Dr let's me order extra in case weather is hotter normally have 50 micrograms morning and night.
Without them I'd be wet though all the time.
Good luck with your treatment and your future.
Billy
