Hormone Therapy (injections)
How this treatment impacted my life the most
The main issue has been night time toilet visits to pass urine - more of a nuisance than anything, Bowel movements can be a bit erratic including constipation occasionally. Some blood in the bowel movements from time to time. I take fybogel to help the bowel movements.
If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?
Yes
Why did I give this answer?
This treatment was advocated by my consultant and other approaches not considered. So, I can only comment on how that treatment has affected me and so I would choose that if that approach was recommended by the consultant
