Is cancer of the prostate easy to cure?

No, cancer of the prostate can be difficult to cure, especially if it is diagnosed at an advanced stage. The curability of prostate cancer depends on several factors, including the stage of the cancer, the patient's age and overall health, and the type of treatment received.

Early-stage prostate cancer that is confined to the prostate gland may be curable with surgery or radiation therapy. However, prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body is generally considered incurable. In these cases, the goal of treatment is to control the cancer's growth and relieve symptoms.
