I have had my treatment of hormone therapy, which finished about six months ago.  Whilst on it I had Cyproterone which controlled my hot flushes.

When I stopped the treatment I stopped taking Cyproterone so that I could get my testosterone back. This has not happened as its below 1.

My hot flushes have returned and I am getting no sleep so they have put me back on Cyproterone, I have tried sage but no joy 

Thoughts... will I ever get my testosterone back 

I hate Cancer 

More... I had radiotherapy and hormone therapy , have tried gabapentin no joy 

  • Hi Echoandpurdey,

    I am a little confused by your question. Cyproterone has hot flushes listed as a side effect. Was that your main prostate cancer treatment? Could you add details to your profile to help us answer?

    e.g. PSA at diagnosis, Gleason scores, staging, treatments given.

    Cyproterone

    best wishes,
