     Warning: This is of vital importance. Often you will read that age is a factor as a cause of cancer.
                      This is true... however, there is never enough emphasis as to why. Age is a factor because
                      the older you get, the more susceptible to cancer you become... since your immune system
                      who'se job is to kill off cancer cells, has become severely weakened by all sorts of toxins,
                      parasites, pesticides, chemicals etc., so keep this in mind as you browse this site.
 
      A prostate cancer cure with intent to cure are primarily surgery and radiation therapy. Other
      cures such as hormonal therapy, chemotherapy, proton therapy, cryosurgery, high intensity
      focused ultrasound (HIFU) also exist depending on the clinical scenario and desired outcome.

      The age and underlying health of the man as well as the extent of spread, appearance under the       microscope, and response of the cancer to initial treatment are important in determining the outcome of
      the disease and the prostate cancer cure. Since prostate cancer is predominantly a disease of
      older men, many will die of other causes before a slowly advancing prostate cancer can spread or cause       symptoms. This makes treatment selection difficult. The decision whether or not to treat localized
      prostate cancer (a tumor that is contained within the prostate) with curative intent is a patient trade-off       between the expected beneficial and harmful effects in terms of patient survival and quality of life.

      Another prostate cancer cure choice is diet. Evidence from epidemiological studies supports       protective roles in reducing prostate cancer for dietary selenium, vitamin E, lycopene, and soy foods.
      High plasma levels of Vitamin D may also have a protective effect. Estrogens from fermented soybeans
      and other plant sources (called phytoestrogens) may also help prevent and help treat prostate cancer.

      Green tea may be a protective prostate cancer cure (due to its polyphenol content), although the
      most comprehensive clinical study indicates that it has no protective effect. A 2006 study of green tea       derivatives demonstrated promising prostate cancer prevention in patients at high risk for the disease.    
   
      A 2007 study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute found that men eating cauliflower,       broccoli, or one of the other cruciferous vegetables, more than once a week were 40% less likely to
      develop prostate cancer than men who rarely ate those vegetables. Scientists believe the reason for this       phenomenon has to do with a phytochemical called Diindolylmethane in these vegetables that has       
      Anti-Androgenic and immune modulating properties. This compound is currently under investigation by
      the National Cancer Institute as a natural therapeutic cure for prostate cancer.

       Cures for prostate cancer may also involve watchful waiting, surgery, radiation therapy including        brachytherapy (prostate brachytherapy) and external beam radiation, High Intensity Focused Ultrasound        (HIFU), chemotherapy, cryosurgery, hormonal therapy, or some combination.

       Which option is best depends on the stage of the disease, the Gleason score, and the PSA level. Other        important factors are the man's age, his general health, and his feelings about potential treatments and
       their possible side effects. Because all treatments can have significant side effects, such as erectile        dysfunction and urinary incontinence, treatment discussions often focus on balancing the goals of
       therapy with the risks of lifestyle alterations.

       The selection of treatment options may be a complex decision involving many factors. For example,
       radical prostatectomy after primary radiation failure is a very technically challenging surgery and may
       not be an option. This may enter into the treatment decision.

       If the cancer has spread beyond the prostate, treatment options significantly change, so most doctors
       who treat prostate cancer use a variety of nomograms to predict the probability of spread. Treatment
       by watchful waiting, HIFU, radiation therapy, cryosurgery, and surgery are generally offered to men
       whose cancer remains within the prostate. Hormonal therapy and chemotherapy are often reserved for        disease which has spread beyond the prostate. However, there are exceptions: radiation therapy may
       be used for some advanced tumors, and hormonal therapy is used for some early stage tumors.        Cryotherapy, hormonal therapy, and chemotherapy may also be offered if initial treatment fails and
       the cancer progresses.

       In general, without going into the specifics of each treatment, these are your prostate cancer
       cure options.
