About this booklet

This booklet is for anyone who has been diagnosed with early (localised) prostate cancer. This is when the cancer is only inside the prostate and has not spread outside it. There is also information for family members and friends.

 

The booklet explains the different treatments for early prostate cancer and their side effects. It also has information about the feelings you might experience, and how your relationships, work and finances might be affected.
