            THE 3 GENERAL TYPES OF PROSTATE

               CANCER JUST TO KEEP IT SIMPLE




                To try and understand is a beginning





                 here are essentially 3 types of prostate cancer that are used
                 as a very general guideline. Because this is not a medical
            Tbook, we are not going to go all “medical science” on you
            here. After listening to the husband drown me in his thoughts
            on the types of prostate cancer, I decided to keep it simple and
            generalize the topic in a way that was clear for people like me
            and you. After several sessions at IHOP, while enjoying our
            pancakes, I felt as though I heard the Dick Doctor say there are
            generally three categories of bad dudes or groups of cancer to
            contend with if the prostate, a.k.a. “The Trickster,” decides to
            cause problems.

               The three general types are:
              1.  “Well Differentiated” which is considered to be low-grade
                  and is most likely to be less aggressive and may tend to
                  grow or spread very slowly. This is often found in older
                  individuals.
