Every man with prostate cancer is different, and each treatment has different side effects and benefits. A treatment decision generally depends on the stage of your cancer – how far it has spread. If it is only in your prostate or the area around it, your doctor will likely recommend that it be treated locally with surgery and/or radiation therapy. If the cancer has metastasized, or spread to other parts of your body, you may also be treated with hormone therapy, chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.
