Suggest Cause And Remedy For Vomiting
My father has stage IV prostate cancer. His prostate was removed 18 years ago and the cancer returned last year or maybe earlier. He has androgen injections every three months. Today he vomited, a lot. Can we expect this to continue? What's the progression? what's happening to make him vomit?

Hello,
Probably he is on anti-androgenic medication. Androgen supplement may require until unless he is castrated.
Many drugs for prostate cancer but which drug your father using? We need more history about the drug and stage of the disease and castration status et cetera.
Please post complete history or consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
