Summary
This study looks at whether men with prostate cancer who have hot flashes from hormone therapy will consistently wear a smartwatch to track their symptoms. For 4 weeks, 18 participants will wear the watch, log hot flashes by pressing a button, and complete daily surveys. The goal is to see if the watch data matches what patients report in surveys, helping researchers find better ways to measure hot flashes.

What could go wrong
