T2 Prostate Cancer Staging: Diagnosis, Treatment Options, and What It Means for You

In this episode, we explain T2 prostate cancer staging and what it means when a tumor is still inside the prostate but large enough to be seen on scans or felt during an exam. Understanding this stage is key to making informed decisions about monitoring and treatment.

You’ll learn:

• The differences between T2a, T2b, and T2c prostate cancer and how each affects your care plan
• How doctors confirm T2 prostate cancer using PSA blood tests, MRI, ultrasound, and biopsies
• Why Gleason scores and grade groups matter in assessing cancer aggressiveness
• What to expect after diagnosis, including ongoing monitoring and imaging
• The main treatment options are active surveillance, surgery, radiation therapy, or combination therapy
• Why early detection at the T2 stage often leads to highly successful outcomes

T2 prostate cancer is still localized, which means you have multiple options and an excellent chance of long-term control when you take action early.
