Hormone Therapy (injections)

Tips and advice for any sexual side effects of treatment

It might just be an age thing but it's a balance between life and death, choose life and you know the trade off

How this treatment impacted my life the most

Impact was negligible , as soon as I had my ADT injection I was fortunate to go overseas for a month walking 10plus KM per day to offset the mental impact. The weather helped immensley and it's only the weather in the UK which has prevented me continuing

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

The benefits outweigh the negatives that come with the treatment
