Based on the latest research in men's health, this book goes beyond the biological and surgical implications of prostate cancer treatment and offers invaluable insight into the psychological and social factors of the recovery process including behavioural changes, mental health, pelvic floor muscle training, general exercises, relaxation, and stretches.
