Quality of life after prostate cancer treatment
For many men, what their life will look like after prostate cancer treatment is one of the most important considerations in choosing the right treatment for them. At The Focal Therapy Clinic, we know that no two people are the same, and everyone we speak to has different priorities for what would give them the best quality of life.
Some of the most common questions we are asked are around how prostate cancer treatment will affect their sex life, relationship with their partner, fertility and incontinence. Thanks to new advancements such as focal therapy, getting treatment for your prostate cancer doesn’t necessarily mean diminishing or losing these.
Understanding how treatment could affect or improve your mental health is also something to consider, although you might not feel as comfortable speaking about it. Our experienced consultants are here to support you throughout your journey and champion what matters to you.

Hear from some of our patients about the effect focal therapy has had on their lives.
“I want to encourage all men to be honest [about the potential side effects] because if they can’t deal with this before they have a procedure, then it’s too late for many of them, with a dramatic effect on their lifestyle.”
