Stopped HT, erections galore

Hot flushes were the worst symptom, that sudden, uncontrollable feeing of overheating - urgh

and the night sweats? It added greatly to the fatigue as I was waking up at least 10-15 times per night needing to throw the duvet off, I’m so glad they have stopped. 

re: libido

although i could still get erections on HT, I wasn't interested. That was actually worse than post-op where I couldn't get erections but wanted to have sex

i have small man boobs, need to lose a stone and see how my body looks before visiting GP for a referral for breast reduction surgery

my body went very hairless during H/T, slowly seeing chest / leg hair beginning to sprout. H/T is an awful, awful thing to go through 

Bill, Chris, 

Never got the Boobs, the fatigue or weight gain. Had a bit of the sweats but nothing I couldn’t handle. If anything my libido went up ( pardon the pun ) after I started Prostap HT. I had Brachytherapy and RT pretty soon after. EF suffered a little but Ciallis has helped with that.

I did a Tough Mudder in May this year , a year and a bit into HT and was ok during training.

My biggest issue by far for me has been mental. I can’t go into detail but it’s been very hard dealing with childhood stuff I buried long long ago.

I am so glad to be coming off the HT now and don’t know how I’d cope with having to go back on again should the worst happen...I might even say no.

Let’s hope the research leads to something better than the HT, either by earlier diagnosis or treatment method.

Keep us posted on your progress.
