Prostate cancer treatment in India

Treatment types, what to plan for and questions to ask before you travel for prostate cancer care.

Draft: awaiting clinical review. A named clinician has not checked this page yet. Use it for general information only.

Written by Editorial team. Not yet clinically reviewed.

What it is

Prostate cancer treatment can include active monitoring, surgery, radiotherapy and hormone treatment. The right choice depends on the stage of the cancer, your age and your health.

Before you decide

A specialist plans treatment from your PSA results, scans and biopsy. Some early prostate cancers grow slowly and need monitoring only. Ask your doctor if treatment is needed now.

What to expect

  1. The hospital reviews your reports.
  2. The specialists suggest a plan.
  3. You travel for tests and treatment.
  4. Radiotherapy often runs daily for some weeks. Ask how long you must stay.

Questions to ask the hospital

  • Do I need treatment now, or monitoring?
  • What are the options, and what are the side effects of each?
  • How long must I stay in India?
  • What does the quote include?
  • What follow-up tests do I need in Kenya?
