Treatment for prostate cancer depends on a number of factors, including your age, whether the cancer has spread and how far. There are various treatments available. Your surgeon may use 1 treatment on its own or you may have a combination. Sometimes, particularly for slow-growing tumors, no treatment is the best course of action. Your condition will be closely monitored by your doctor with routine check-ups. If tests show that the cancer is growing or causing symptoms, your doctor may suggest that you start having treatment.
