Prostate cancer’s devastating, under-discussed effects on patient’s lives

In this webinar, Vincent Chan will cover erectile dysfunction following prostate cancer treatment. He will discuss:

  • Mitigating risk factors for ED before prostatectomy.
  • My patient now has ED - how can GPs help and when and where to refer.
  • Recognising other under-appreciated penile and sexual side-effects post prostatectomy.
  • What patients can expect from a specialist assessment.
  • Medical and surgical treatment options.
     

Sum Sum Lo will cover off incontinence following prostate cancer treatment, including real-life challenges:
