A member asked:
Can there be antibiotic treatments for prostrate cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Prostate cancer is not an infection, but prostatitis is so if this is about a relative, be clear in what he has. Obviously, someone with prostate cancer can get an infection and would be treated with antibiotics but this would not be treatment for the cancer itself.
