The treatments for prostate cancer are not without their side effects. After the prostate is removed there is a high risk of impotence, and urinary incontinence may occur. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy, while improving all the time, can be very trying, painful and traumatic. Open communication, not only with your health practitioner but also with your family and friends, will help you to cope with any potential side effects of treatment. Remember that you are not alone. Joining support groups allows you to meet people who are sharing your experiences, and may give you a better understanding of how to manage your own recovery.
