Nurse Tips from the Book
PSA Anxiety: Write down the number and date, then close this app. Obsessing between tests doesn't change the outcome — showing up prepared does.
Hormone Therapy Fatigue & Rage: A 10-minute walk after meals helps energy and mood more than most men expect. When irritability spikes, walk first, talk second.
Hot Flashes: Keep the bedroom cool, dress in layers, and note triggers in your Daily Note. Patterns help your doctor help you.
Incontinence: Do 10 quick pelvic floor squeezes after you finish urinating. Consistency beats perfection.
ED: Ask your urologist about penile rehab options early. Don't just wait and hope — early blood flow matters.
Partner Communication: Try this: "This isn't about you. This is the treatment. Let's figure it out together."
