Making the Prostate Cancer Decision

 

If a biopsy has shown that you have early stage prostate cancer, this website is for you. It gives you the facts about your disease, your treatment choices, and the possible results of those choices.

 

This website is designed to help you understand medical facts and talk with your doctor. It is not medical advice. It should not take the place of your doctor's advice and suggestions. Talk with your doctor about all your prostate cancer treatment choices.

 

Share this website with your doctor and loved ones. Talk to people you trust. Many others have learned about treatment choices and coped with prostate cancer. You can, too.

 

Sometimes, men with prostate cancer have symptoms that continue after their treatment has ended.  Our fact sheets were written to help men and their loved ones manage these symptoms.  Each of the 14 fact sheets describes a symptom, gives advice for managing it, and indicates when you should talk with your doctor or other health care provider about it.
