Prostate cancer is most common malignancy among men in the United States. As men are now living longer with prostate cancer due to advances in treatment, there exists a growing need to manage the long-term physical and psychological sequelae of this disease, which range from genitourinary dysfunction to cardiometabolic and psychosocial consequences.
