Implant brand preferences?
Hello All, I'm 53 and had a
radical
prostatectomy
in Feb 2023 for Gleason 5+5, stage 3, positive node=1, intraductal carcinoma. Surgeon was unable to spare any nerves and I've got nothing in the area of erections.

Xtandi and price tag
Hi, I just had
radical
prostatectomy
3/23. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer with EPE. I started on Firmagon and my doctor ordered Xtandi. My question is …how can anyone afford Xtandi? My copay is 3300 dollars, more than my SS check.

daily diarrhea 3 years after radiation...?
I had 37 radiation treatments to my pelvic area in 2019 after having a
radical
prostatectomy
9 months previous to that. Has anyone had the same experience? I did have a colonoscopy about a year and a half ago and the results were that I had enlarged blood vessels or internal hemorrhoids.

What’s the pros and cons of Casodex and Lupron as the only treatment for Gleason 4+5 (9).
Urologist wanted to do a
radical
prostatectomy
. I chose to change my diet, exercise and lifestyle to a plant-based detox from chemicals in my food and in my house. My PSA went from 13.7 to 100 in one year. It metastasized to my pelvic area and seminal vessel.

Bleeding after salvage radiation
Had
radical
prostatectomy
12/21. Salvage radiation about 11 mos ago. Currently about one year into Lupron + Abiraterone + prednisone. Recently experienced very mild rectal and/or blood in stool. Is this likely due to the radiation, or something else?

Prostate-as-"PCa Factory" - Reasons for Removal?
While reading the bio of forum member, I noted the following advantage to
