Researchers have found long-term evidence that actively monitoring localized prostate cancer is a safe alternative to immediate surgery or radiation.
The results, released Saturday, are encouraging for men who want to avoid treatment-related sexual and incontinence problems, said Dr. Stacy Loeb, a prostate cancer specialist at NYU Langone Health who was not involved in the research.
The study directly compared the three approaches — surgery to remove tumors, radiation treatment and monitoring. Most prostate cancer grows slowly, so it takes many years to look at the disease’s outcomes.

Just because we cannot trust the vampiric medicine industry, doesn’t mean we chuck out every single study wholesale with no regard to individual merits. You can find pearls in haystack of donkey poop. No need to throw out the baby with the bath water.
Many times just waiting for a disease to ride out is better than modern treatments. “Treatments” by these
bloodsuckersdoctors CAN worsen things.
