T1 Prostate Cancer Staging Explained: Early Detection, Treatment Options, and What to Expect
In this episode, we break down what T1 prostate cancer staging means and why catching it early can make such a big difference. T1 prostate cancer is very small, stays inside the prostate, and usually doesn’t show up on scans or exams. It’s most often discovered through PSA testing and biopsy.
You’ll learn:
- What T1 prostate cancer staging is and how it’s diagnosed
- The different T1 subtypes (T1a, T1b, T1c) and what they reveal
- How Gleason scores and grade groups affect risk levels and treatment decisions
- Why some patients may choose active surveillance instead of immediate treatment
- The main treatment options, including surgery and radiation therapy
- Why follow-up PSA testing and regular monitoring are essential
- How early detection gives patients more choices and better long-term outcomes
T1 prostate cancer may be small, but understanding it early is the key to controlling it and protecting your future health.
