It depends on how aggressive is your particular prostate cancer. In general, if you get prostate CA at a younger age, it's more aggressive and would need to be treated appropriately. On the other hand, if you live long enough, the majority of old men will have a slow growing form of prostate CA. These men often die of other causes (heart, lung, kidney diseases), but not because of the prostate CA. The fear of prostate CA and breast CA are a bit out of proportion to the Death Rate because of the "CANCER" diagnose. People should worry about Heart disease more since that kills many more people. I have patients with uncontrolled diabetes, obese, and smoking coming worry about prostate CA or breast CA. Sure, I'll screen them for prostate CA and breast CA, but they should put more effort in controlling what's more controllable like stop smoking and diet/exercise.
