Depends: There is no single answer to your question. Prostate cancer is treated based on many factors including one's health, life expectancy, degree of prostate cancer involvement, tumor stage, etc. A healthy discussion with your urologist will help you come to a proper conclusion and treatment plan based on your specific characteristics.

Prostate cancer : There is no "best" treatment for prostate cancer. The appropriate treatment for any given individual depends on the stage and grade of the tumor, the age and health of the patient and the patient's personal preference.

YOUR CHOICE: Best way is your choice - surgery vs. Radiation therapy vs. Hormone therapy or a combination.
