Fear can turn even measured men into urgent patients and nowhere is that more obvious than in prostate cancer treatment. 

In this episode, Dr. Stephen Petteruti addresses this fear-driven reflex, reminding men that clarity comes not from panic, but from understanding how the system often uses fear to push unnecessary interventions. He exposes why biopsies, radiation, surgery, and castration therapies are recommended far more often than they are needed. 

Dr. Stephen explains how medical bias guides many of these decisions, and he highlights major studies like PIVOT and ProtecT trials that show most aggressive treatments don’t improve survival, but they do harm vitality and long‑term health. He also breaks down how urgency is manufactured. 

Prostate cancer is rarely an emergency, and men almost always have time to think, ask questions, and explore options.

For anyone sensing pressure to act fast, this episode offers a clear perspective. Tune in here: How Fear Sells Prostate Cancer Treatment.
