How long can you live with prostate cancer at the age of 75?

Prostate cancer is also a type of malignant tumor. There are many reasons why men suffer from prostate cancer. Many prostate patients suffer from prostate cancer due to the deterioration of some prostate diseases. Clinically, many elderly people are also diagnosed with prostate cancer. At this time, the development of the disease may also be affected by age factors, which will also affect the survival period. So how long can a 75-year-old live with prostate cancer?

1. Prostate cancer at the age of 75 years, if it can be treated in time, generally will not affect the patient's life span. Prostate cancer is generally not very malignant. Compared with liver cancer, stomach cancer, colon cancer, etc., prostate cancer is less malignant. Prostate cancer can be cured if it can be discovered as early as possible and treated in time. Radical prostatectomy is recommended for early prostate cancer. The surgical treatment effect is relatively ideal and generally will not affect the patient's life. If prostate cancer has metastasized to distant places and become chronic, and the opportunity for surgery is lost, prostate cancer will affect the patient's quality of life and may have a certain impact on the patient's life. Advanced prostate cancer can be treated through endocrine therapy or biological aspects.

2. Prostate cancer may have no symptoms or very mild symptoms in the early stage, so it is not easy to detect. Compression symptoms will appear as the disease progresses, and metastasis symptoms will appear in the late stage. The survival period of prostate cancer is related to the patient's pathological classification, staging, metastasis, general condition and psychological state. If cancer is found in the early stage, radical treatment is recommended. If prostate cancer is in the middle stage, surgery, radiotherapy and endocrine therapy should be considered. Palliative treatment should be the main treatment in the late stage, with symptomatic treatment as the main treatment. A 75-year-old prostate cancer patient may also live for a few years, because prostate cancer progresses slowly and may not develop until it reaches a certain level. Everyone's physique is a little different in terms of survival time.

3. The body functions of the elderly over 70 years old are actually very weak at this time, and they are also prone to some troublesome diseases at this stage, such as prostate cancer. Prostate cancer occurring at this age is actually very dangerous and may cause them to lose their lives. How long the patient can live is also affected by many factors. If it is treated in time in the early stages, then it may not be affected, but if it reaches the late stages, the survival period may be greatly shortened.
