You don't give much info . What was your Gleason score ? What is the stage ? T1 , T2 ? All this has to be taken into consideration . A good urologist should give you all this information and discuss possible treatments . My urologist printed out a sheet showing the chances of being regression free in 5 years using each treatment . Your PSA isn't that high . This needn't be a rushed decision . Do plenty of research .
