What is the average age of the gentlemen on here?

52 now. 51 at diagnosis.

Hi John, my name is Alan and I'm 78 YOA. I've been a prostate cancer patient for 10 years, Still managing it quite well and not too many side effects, I've been on Lupron for 3 years now and it is keeping the PSA low and my testosterone is essentially at zero and of course that is one of the side effects but still leading quite a decent life. More info than you asked for but gives you a little bit of a profile.

I turned 59 in 2020 but diagnosed with cancer in November 2019. I am also considered young to get this disease. My PSA started going up in 2015. It was around 5 at that time but in 2019 October it went up to 9 so my PCP referred me to a Urologist. After the biopsy, scans, etc., it is determine as stage 4. I started hormone therapy ( Lupron shots in January), Chemo in February( just got me 3rd infusion yesterday abc have 3 more to go), and I’ll be be getting radiation therapy after the Chemos.
