Hi and thanks for this query.

The definitive cure for cancer of the prostate is surgery. If it has extended beyond the prostate, then hormone therapy and chemotherapy can be used to provide temporary relief.

I think you should meet and discuss with your doctor and discuss if surgery is an option for you. It depends on the stage of the cancer(still within the prostate gland or presence of metastases), your age and whether you have some other conditions that may make surgery or its outcome more harmful than helpful.

Hope you find this helpful.
I wish you success as you take on the battle against this disease.
Wish you good health
