Hormone Therapy (tablets)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

I had a few hot sweats with hormone therapy but nothing serious and didn't last long. I had 20 sessions of radio therapy. Quite tiring after session 10 onwards.

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

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

Yes. It was the best option for me. Removal of the prostate was not an option which suited me or was the implantation of radio active seeds.
