Welcome to the Cancer Chat community Michf22 although I'm sorry to hear your dad has been diagnosed with prostate cancer.

You can find out more about having a prostatectomy or hormone therapy and radiotherapy and their side effects on our website, but if your dad would like to talk through his options with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very knowledgeable and will do all that they can to help.

Hopefully some of our prostate cancer members who have had either of these treatments will be along soon to share their experiences and advice as well.

Kind regards,

Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
