I have prostate cancer (no methastesis). i won't have any treatment. how long can i have before it gets really worrying?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: It depends on the volume of cancer, the gleason score, and lymphatic or perineural invasion. On average, the most common prostate cancer will take 7-10 years before any significant metastatic disease develops.
