New here - Just saying hello

You should discuss this with your partner after the specialist nurse or specialist because there’s not one thing you mentioned that isn’t already on your horizon whatever treaty you have.

I’m not a doctor but on this site on this forum you will get better advice than me but try not to worry or rush your decision. prostate cancer is a snail of a cancer so don’t feel you should make a decision on this or that day. There’s loads to think about.

The is a partners disease too. This treatment whatever you choose will, yes Will, affect the both of you. The sex bit is profound and if it’s large on you horizon then you both need to weigh up the consequences of HT, surgery or radiotherapy or all of. The above, because they all have huge side effects and huge benefits too. But sex will be one thing that is going to be tested and your commitment to each other will need to be able to cope with a new normal coming your way. 

Surgery, you asked about surgery. You’re nervous, you’re not sure it’s right, but I’m sure you need to ask the professionals about your body because we are all different. We all think and feel and are internally different so think about the responses of others but you and your partner will need to decide.

It’s not all bad. Be positive. Trust your decision. Trust in the surgeon or your oncologist.

Take care

Good luck
