Understanding the difference between localised and advanced prostate cancer

For most men, getting a prostate cancer diagnosis understandably is overwhelming. In Australia, about 20,000 Australian men per year hear they have this condition. 

The prostate is a small gland below your bladder and surrounds the urethra. It’s often not larger than a walnut and it’s responsible for most of the fluid that makes up semen.

Prostate cancer occurs when abnormal cells develop in the prostate gland. They can multiply in an uncontrolled way, and a tumour may develop. In some cases, these cells can spread to other parts of the body. Yet, quite often, you live symptom-free for many years without the disease becoming life-threatening.
