Exercise has a range of benefits for people with prostate cancer. It can help to:

• improve your quality of life – enabling you to feel more positive, maintain healthy relationships and stay motivated along your journey
• reduce fatigue – a common side effect of cancer treatments
• reduce loss of bone density – a side effect of hormone therapy such as androgen deprivation (ADT)
• strengthen your pelvic floor – helping to ease urinary issues
• maintain healthy muscles and heart – improving your overall fitness and wellbeing.

Your St Vincent’s Men’s Health physiotherapist or exercise physiologist can develop a personalised exercise program to help you achieve your individual goals.
