Cancer should never be ignored. There are prostrate cancer that are low risk and slow growing that can be at the montiored level based on Biopsies, Decipher test, PSMA, bone scans.

When prostrate cancer moves out of prostrate you are dealing with a whole different diagnosis than if inside prostrate. Please talk to your R/O and urologist about the type cancer you have the aggressiveness of it and the different options for treating.

Everyone's prostrate cancer is unique to them and what one person does for theirs may not be a good choice for you. Watchful waiting is routinely (what is told to me by urologists and R/Os) for low aggressive prostrate type cancers that the cancer is only located inside the prostrate.

I am 77. Treated when I was 76. I plan to live another 20 years but even if only 10 want to die of something else not prostrate cancer that I could have treated. Again very different outcomes and treatment options for low risk non aggressive prostrate cancer versus intermediate, aggressive and/or has spread outside the prostrate.
