Hormone Therapy (injections and relugolix tablets)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

The treatment generally had very little impact on my life. The 'hot flushes' were sometimes a minor inconvenience.

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

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

I am confident that the treatment has had the desired effect and has had very little impact on my daily life.

Radiotherapy

How this treatment impacted my life the most

I had to attend the treatment centre every week day for 20 days. It was not a problem. It was during October 2020 while the covid lockdown was in force.

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

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

I am confident that the treatment has had the desired effect.
