How are others managing advanced prostate cancer with hormone therapy?
Community Member
7 days agoI have advanced prostate cancer and am currently on hormone therapy treatments including Degarelix and Bicalutamide, plus abiraterone acetate. I just read about new cancer statistics showing that five-year survival rates for distant-stage cancers have improved significantly since the mid-1990s, which gives me hope about the treatment options available now compared to years ago. I'd love to connect with others who have similar diagnoses and hear about your experiences with these types of treatments. • What has your treatment journey looked like so far? • What advice or tips do you have for managing day-to-day life during treatment?
