Question

How many prostate therapy treatments and side effects

Answer 1

There are several. One is chemotherapy. Chemotherapy drugs often cause hair loss, nausea, aches and pains. One involves use of radioactive "beads" inserted around the cancer. Many men report this to be painful and invasive. Another option is surgical removal of the prostate gland. If the patient is elderly, yet another option is to do nothing. Quite often, the cancer is so slow-growing that the patient may well live many more years without being adversely affected.
