Anemia with ADT therapy

Two questions:

1. Have you developed anemia on ADT Therapy-?

2. If so -how was it treated-?

My prostate cancer returned last year. I was started on lupron every 3 months and XTANDI 80mg X two tablets.
My HCT and HGB has dropped by 1.5 points and are both below the normal range.

Thank you for your input

  1. This is quite normal, my hemo dropped to 12.3. After BAT initiation the hemo went to 15.1, testosteron treatment can have a profound effect.


    1. Thank you for your response
      This was very helpful and reassuring
