Just wanted to check if it is possible that over time your body builds up a resistance to siterone. I feel that the results I am getting from taking 75mg 2 times a day has recently become less effective. I have presently been taking siterone for 9 months but the last month has not been as calm as before.

On another note I will be getting a complete blood work done and will see the effects if any on my liver and also get my t level and find out if I am at castrate level.

Thanks Terry

I was on siterone (androcur) for over 2.5 years. I found no change in effectiveness. Have not heard of that being the case with others. Have heard the opposite where some may need less after being on the drug for an extended period of time.

Thanks Bobbie for the response, your probally right. I think it probally is in in my head as my mind has always been a big factor when it came to sex for me.

I was thinking about switching from siterone to DP. If my T level is already low from the siterone could I probally start off with 150mg/month and not notice a big change and continue that dose 150mg/month?

Or would I need to slowly lower the siterone dose after my 1 shot to avoid a sudden change which might shock my system.

Just looking for someone that may have experienced this or has some knowledge on the subject

I know little about DP. You may want to back off the siterone 50mg a week. You have the drug and would lessen any sudden changes to the body. I have not heard of any problems of sudden stoppage. Many have had to because they ran out of the drug.

The little I know about DP it seems that the person should be under care of a doctor and have blood test monitored. Something to think about.

Wish you the best.

I am under a GP's care and getting a complete blood work up. It was every 3 months now it is every 6 months. I have talked to my doctor briefly about what I am doing and he is aware, but it is off the record as this way it wont possibly come back to haunt me later. If I continue to follow this route I may need to see another doc as he doesnt really know anything about siterone (why should he its not FDA approved for used in the US) nor does he specialize in Urology. I was looking at DP as a cheaper alternative although I am having second thoughts as my T level is quite stubborn in being reduced and it might take even more DP than normal and remove any savings it might bring me.

Thanks Terry
