Topic context

Understanding prostate cancer

For some men, prostate cancer brings a decision about whether to treat now or monitor, which doctors call active surveillance, and treatment can affect bladder control and sexual function. These are private subjects that many men have never discussed with anyone.

Why it helps

How peer support helps with prostate cancer

Peer support can help with prostate cancer because silence is common, and hearing another person describe the same worry makes it easier to say your own. A group also helps during the waiting that comes with monitoring and test results.

Inside the room

What prostate cancer groups often cover

Living with the choice between treatment and monitoring
Bladder control and other side effects
Changes in intimacy and how to talk with a partner
Anxiety before each test result

ShareWell groups are peer support and do not give medical advice, so please keep working with your care team on anything about diagnosis or treatment. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a men-only prostate cancer group?

No. ShareWell does not have a group just for prostate cancer today. The sessions listed here welcome anyone living with a serious or lasting illness, and they sit next to relaxed sessions such as mindfulness.

I find these topics embarrassing. Do I have to share details?

You decide how much to say. Many members start by listening, and you never have to discuss anything you would prefer to keep private.

Can my wife or partner attend?

Your partner can join with an account of their own, either in the same group or in a caregiving group.

Where can I find medical information about prostate cancer?

ZERO Prostate Cancer (zerocancer.org) has information and support for patients and families.
