It explains how to maintain better prostate health, and how to evaluate treatment options when disease occurs.

The experts at Mayo Clinic can help readers evaluate treatment options, cope with cancer and treatment side effects, and discover ways to improve quality of life. Topics covered include: the debate over PSA testing; latest imaging technology; full range of treatment options for prostatitis and BPH; new advances in treatment of prostate cancer; what's happening in research, and managing treatment side effects, including incontinence and impotence"-- Provided by publisher.
