Overview

You've just been diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. Stop. Read this first. The consultant says surgery. Within six weeks. Eight specialists unanimously agree: treat immediately. But what if they're wrong? Paul Sweeney was 55 with a young family when he got the diagnosis. Gleason 7. He was supposed to be grateful and compliant. Instead, he did his own research. What he found shocked him. The landmark ProtecT trial-1,600 men, 15 years-showed no survival difference between surgery and monitoring. The ""manageable"" side effects? An 85% chance of permanent erectile dysfunction. One in six men regretting their decision. MANHANDLED exposes why the system pushes treatment you may not need, what surgeons won't tell you about life after the knife, and how to take control when everyone's telling you to comply.
