What is Prostate Cancer?

The prostate is an organ that secretes substances, like hormones, into the body. It’s found only in men and is about the size of a walnut. It lies just below the bladder and in front of the rectum. The prostate gland surrounds the tube through which urine flows and it produces fluid that makes up semen.

Starting treatment for prostate cancer can be daunting, but armed with the right knowledge, you’ll have a better idea of what to expect. The various treatment options that are available depending on the stage of prostate cancer that you are diagnosed with.

Supporting your loved one

Supporting someone with prostate cancer can be challenging, but a solid support structure is essential to the mental and physical wellbeing of patients and caregivers alike.
