The prognosis of prostate cancer depends on several factors, including the stage of the cancer, the patient's age and overall health, and the aggressiveness of the cancer cells.
In general, prostate cancer has a good prognosis, especially when caught early.
The 5-year survival rate for localized prostate cancer (cancer that has not spread beyond the prostate) is nearly 100%. However, the prognosis worsens as the cancer progresses and spreads to other parts of the body.
It is important to discuss the specific prognosis with a healthcare professional, as it can vary greatly from person to person.
