Prostate cancer can often be treated effectively, especially when detected early. The likelihood of a complete cure depends on the stage of the cancer, the type of treatment, and the patient's general health. Early-stage prostate cancer has a greater chance of being cured with treatments such as surgery or radiation. Regular monitoring and prompt treatment are crucial for achieving the best results.
The rate at which prostate cancer spreads varies widely. It usually tends to grow slowly, often remaining confined to the prostate gland for years. However, aggressive forms of prostate cancer can spread more quickly. Factors such as the grade, type, and general health of the cancer patient influence the rate of progression. Regular monitoring and early detection are crucial for effective management.

Most patients can resume normal activities within this period, although individual recovery times may vary depending on age and general health. Additionally, many patients can expect their potency to return with or without the use of oral medications, depending on their pre-surgery condition and specific circumstances.
