Hi !
Have had my meeting with my finnish doctor today and we’ve set up a plan as follows:
- Coming off Abiraterone in February 2026 ( 22 months )
- Taper off Prednisolone in 4-6 weeks
- Coming off Orgovyx in March / April 2026 ( 26 - 27 months )
- Monthly PSA tests for 6 months after coming off Orgovyx and then going back to 3 month testing again
Anyway, hopefully I will stay in remission for a very long time and so far, with a PSA of < 0.10 18 months since final radiation it looks more hopeful then when I went into my treatment I must say.
Best wishes - Ulf
Hi !
They really go by the text book with you and that’s good to hear. Hopefully we both can enjoy the freedom of hormone therapy at one point. A suggestion from my part. Check the possibility of going over to Orgovyx (Relugolix) at one point. Not that they are better but from a Testosterone recovery they are much faster when stopping compared to agonists. Litterature shows 1-3 months of start of Testosterone recovery. Just a thought and perhaps something to discuss with your doctor / medical team
Best wishes - Ulf
