Asking questions is important because it helps you understand your cancer and treatment better.

It gives you the information you need to make choices that feel right for you.
Knowing what will happen can help you feel less worried and more prepared.
It also helps you work together with your doctors so they can give you the best care.
By asking questions, you won’t miss important details about your health and how to take care of yourself.

Here are some simple questions you can ask your doctor about primary urethral cancer:

What kind of urethral cancer do I have, and how advanced is it?
How common is my cancer type and what evidence supports the treatment you are recommending?
Where is the cancer located in my urethra?
What treatment options do I have?
How soon do we have to make a decision about my treatment?
What is the goal of the treatment?
What side effects might I have from the treatment?
How will the treatment affect my daily life and bathroom habits?
Will I need surgery? What will it involve?
Will I need radiation or chemotherapy?
What are the chances the cancer will come back?
How often will I need check-ups after treatment?
Are there support services or counselling to help me?
What should I do if I notice new symptoms?
Can I get a second opinion or see a specialist?
Are there clinical trials that I might be eligible for?
Will treatment affect my sexual or urinary function, and what support is available?
How can I handle side effects or symptoms while I’m getting treatment?
Can you recommend a patient organisation or patient support group where I could speak to someone in a similar situation as me?
