Report to the Nation on Prostate Cancer: A Guide for Men and Their Families

A Guide for Men and Their FamiliesBeing diagnosed with prostate cancer can be a life-altering experience. It requires making some very difficult decisions about treatments that can affect not only the life of the man diagnosed, but also the lives of his family members in significant ways for many years to come.

More than 218,000 men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year, and each and every one of them will need to make very personal and individualized decisions about treatment options and diet and lifestyle changes.

But most importantly, each and every one of them will have to find a strong, knowledgeable team of physicians, nurses and other healthcare providers to help guide him through the process at each step of the way.
