Check on prostate too since he may need to be put on something to shrink it while the suprelorin and melatonin are reaching their effect. Propecia is on such medication if it is the prostate, but there could be an infection in the bladder or prostate too so antibiotics may also be needed. Dosing should be the same with Propecia regardless of Suprelorin. Once everything else kicks in you can often stop the Propecia. Best of luck to you.

My vet has an extra Deslorelin implant on hand. If I get this for Pop, should it solve the problem IF it's adrenal disease? The frequent, small urinations are not accompanied by any signs of pain, so I don't think it's any kind of stone.
