Hi colleagues, my PSA on 18th August was 0.433.
I have not been on any medication apart from prostate cancer herbal supplements since November 2020.
The Oncologist examined my stomach and prostate gland (DRE) after which he told me that I was stable and should go for review after six months.
Suffice to say, I was diagnosed with PSA at 65, put on Zoladex from June 2014 to June 2016, when PSA dropped to undetectable levels. Of course it started rising slowly until it peaked at almost 3.5 in September 2020. I started herbal supplements in Nov 2020 and the PSA has remained below one since then.
My health has remained stable apart from incontinence issues and penile dysfunction which should have been doing better with my elevated testosterone.
Thank you for your support.
