Product Description
PROSTATE! PROSTATE! PROSTATE! A Problem of Men is an easy to read, caring and compassionate journey of understanding of man's prostate, one of man's most important organs, bearing the responsibility for reproduction and very susceptible to potentially fatal diseases. This book explains the value of the prostate and the risks it faces, taking you on that journey with the authors, a prostate cancer survivor and a urologist. You may turn back, jump forward, or repeat specific chapters as you journey.
More than 95 percent of men who are diagnosed with prostate cancer, and the women in their lives, find themselves wanting to understand more about available treatment, before they make their decision for choice of treatment. This book fills that information void by providing an abundance of information in an orderly fashion and helps with the understanding, education and relief.
Part I of the book (five chapters) addresses health habits and self-care, leading into nurturing the prostate and the benefits of nutritional supplements.
Part II (five chapters) is about the Prostate, the major role it plays in your reproductive system, the diseases that can affect the prostate and your quality of life.
Part III (10 chapters) deals with prostate cancer diagnosis, the steps taken to confirm that cancer is present, and its severity.
Part IV (seven chapters) deals with managing the condition, including your behavior tendencies, denial, breaking the news to family and friends, changing lifestyle and what the women in your life can do to help.
Part V (nine chapters) addresses the alternative treatment options, including the newest ones, and making the selection regarding treatment.
Part VI (nine chapters) is about the surgery experience, hospital admission, treatment, what to expect, post-hospital care, subsequent visits to your urologist and finally recurrent cancer and salvage therapy.

Must Read,

This review is from: PROSTATE! PROSTATE! PROSTATE!
If you or someone you know is over fifty or has prostate cancer, this is a must read book. It is easy to read and covers all issues, including disease fighting foods and supplements. This would make an excellent Father's Day book, especially for dads who do not yet have health issues related to it.

Helpful purchase for dad,
By
This review is from: PROSTATE! PROSTATE! PROSTATE!
This book was a great resource for my dad when he was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. It helped him make the decisions that were best for him in an educated manner. Dad is not a "reader" usually but he read this book cover to cover and then went back later for refreshers.
