Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in France.
It usually develops slowly from cells in the prostate, a small gland located below the bladder that plays an essential role in producing seminal fluid. Often silent in its early stages, it is sometimes discovered during a simple screening examination. Although the diagnosis can be worrying, many forms of prostate cancer progress slowly and can be managed effectively with appropriate treatments. Understanding the disease, how it works and the available treatment options is a key step in making informed decisions together with your medical team.
