I can share my experience with you as well. I was 54 when I was diagnosed with PC in October, 2024. I was very healthy and athletic, but had been on TRT for about 3 months. (Feb. - Apr, 2024). When I started, my T level was at 86 ng/dl. The TRT required monthly PSA checks which actually caught my PC early. My PSA pre-TRT was 3.9 and within 3 months on TRT went up to 6.2. I immediately stopped TRT and was referred to a Urologist who ordered a biopsy. The biopsy found PC in 8 of 12 cores, with a Gleason of 4+3. Fortunately the PC was confined to the prostate. I had RARP this past March (2025). I biggest worry going into the surgery was the catheter I would have to wear after. It was very unpleasant, but not painful as I predicted. I'm about 5 months from surgery now and almost everything has returned close to normal. I was lucky as I did not have incontinence aside from minor leakage when lifting heavy objects. I still have not fully returned to lifting as heavy in workouts as pre-surgery, but I'm about 75%. The biggest side effect has been ED. I am on daily Cialis 5mg. but it doesn't seem to help. I am still doing pelvic floor exercises in the hopes that I will get closer. I haven't tried any other therapies yet for the ED, but those are coming. Otherwise, life is almost back to normal. My last PSA showed undetectable. I had my annual physical last week and showed my T level at 36. My workouts are improving and I'm back to cycling longer distances since all the pain has disappeared. Overall, I'm happy with my choice of the surgery. I wish you all the best on your journey. This forum has been a tremendous help in my recovery.
