This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer.
There are only four rules:

  • No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
  • No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
  • Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making

Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Re: ADT and cholesterol

My HDL and LDL counts have been going up every 3 months when I have tests after my Zoladex shot. My GP says not to worry, that when/if I get off ADT shots the cholesterol will go down. I also have gone to almost a total vegeterian diet. My ratio of HDL and LDL is about 4 and the high one is 284 I think.

Re: ADT and cholesterol

Aloha Paul A,
Just as a note, I have HBV, and the last DNA count was 114000. Just had a DNA count and it was 5010. Was on Lupron Depot 3 months shots for a year. No one thinks, even the HBV National foundation web-site, that this is related. It just happens, for what ever reason.

Re: ADT and cholesterol

Hi Paul,
Well my cholesterol levels rose sharply whilst on ADT but have settled again following cessation.
