Glad to hear you found a new doctor you like> I am sure you will get the treatment you need now. You will remember I suggested a new doc to you a while ago. I will say a prayer for your cure

Thank you for your support. I have gone through five urologists, all male, and only one treated me with respect and required the same of his female medical assistant. Yes, a new doctor was what I needed and I am happy that it was a female doctor who reminded me that this goes beyond gender.

@jonlo11 Sorry it took me so ling to s your post. I have had horrible experiences with female medical assistants and the male doctors who use them. They do not even ask consent before unnecessarily seizing control of a man's genitals in the most brutal and painful manner. It is almost impossible to get a compassionate male examination and the female nurse is still present to counter the protection and. professional care the male nurse provides. I waited a year following the last dominatrix exercise in the guise of a medical procedure. I have decided to seek no further urology treatment and would rather face the cancer alone and not spend my final hours being humiliated, abused and tortured by a misandristic sadistic female.

I made the decision to have my proste removed and it was not an easy time... just as hard as finding out you had prostate cancer... I was advised by my doctors the surgery was the best option because of my age and the harmful affects of radiation longterm. For me, once I made the decision, I did have the peace of mind knowing that the actual cancer was "removed" instead of just treated... which, I guess, did give me some sense of comfort.
The biggest issue for me once the surgery was done and I was on the road to recovering was the effects it had on me emotionally/psychologically, which many people in my opinion overlook. I encourage anyone and everyone, when diagnosed with prostate cancer, before and after treatment and during, to seek psychological help... there is nothing wrong with it. Medications, counseling, and just talking about your feelings can help tremendously. Do not hold it all in and try to battle the anxiety and depression because this diagnosis will affect you, no matter how strong you may consider yourself to be.
The sexual effects treatment has on you will also affect you mentally, because your sexual ability and ability to have kids will likely be affected. Your performance ability can be likely fixed, but it can still affect you mentaly. Take care of yourself.

Hello members - I am posting this on behalf of @Perrie123, who expressed the following below. Please share or comment if you have any advice or experience/opinions to share.
"Is it possible for a man to have a private male examination without having a female seize control of his genitals and abuse him as she wishes? Are there no male urologists and oncologists who treat men in a professional manner? I have not found a single physician in the Baltimore/Washington area who can give me an examination or treatment without turning my genitals over to his female accomplice to abuse me as she wishes. They even require females in pairs to undress us, female medical operators of the devices used in the medical procedure, females to discuss care of our male genitals and issues, and even allow non-medical female personnel such as receptionists, to enter the examination and treatment area. I now use only dietary, herbal and non-traditional medical treatment of my aggressive prostate cancer. I shall never submit to another female dominatrix exercise."
