I was told by my friend that he is getting Hormone treatment because his Cancer was advanced with a high Gleason Score. He has found his emotional stability has suffered from this program. He now takes anti depressants and has anxiety. .it has been 2 yrs of treatments. My husband had Robotic Prostate Surgery 8 years ago ( by a Doctor who had done 900 of these surgeries) because he didn’t want to deal with 2.5 years of treatments Stanford recommended. He is now 75 yrs old and continues being tested annually and is free of Cancer. He had his sexual functioning back after 18 months with the help of Cialis. Do your own research and get opinions from different Doctors.
