Know Your Radiation Therapy Options for Prostate Cancer
Radiation therapy for prostate cancer isn't one option but several, each with a different risk profile—from IMRT and SBRT to brachytherapy and Pluvicto.

Radical prostatectomy recovery follows a clear arc—catheter out around 1–2 weeks, then continence and PSA milestones. Here's what to expect at each stage.

Active surveillance lets men with Gleason 6 prostate cancer monitor instead of treating now—see who qualifies and how it's tracked.

rostate cancer screening isn't one age for everyone. Most men start at 50, but higher-risk men begin at 45 or 40 — see where you fall.

Prostate cancer hits 1 in 6 Black men—the largest racial gap of any major cancer. Caught early, it's highly treatable. Here's when to screen.

Prostate cancer causes are widely misunderstood. Age, family history, and genes are the proven risks — vasectomy and an enlarged prostate are not.

A PSMA PET scan spots prostate cancer spread that older scans miss, and trials show it's far more accurate. Here's how to read your results.

A prostate biopsy is the only way to confirm or rule out cancer after a high PSA. Here's what to expect, from MRI-guided biopsy to your Gleason score.

A high PSA on its own doesn't mean cancer. BPH, infection, recent exercise, and finasteride can all raise it—and many elevations settle on a repeat test.

A PSA test result means different things at 45 than at 70. See what's normal by age, what counts as high, and why one high reading rarely means a biopsy.
