Most research shows removing Gleason 6 or active surveillance results in similar life expectancy. Real question is would you be more comfortable without prostate, and deal with continence and erection issues later in life or with active surveillance and have to deal with more MRIs, and biopsies, and more focal ablation procedures. The good news is most get to pick their journey! Best of luck on either choice!

And if you can't, do everything you can to keep it sleeping and tip the odds in your favour.
