Summary

This study tests a program designed to help men with prostate cancer manage their heart health while undergoing hormone therapy (ADT). The program involves two counseling sessions with a nurse or physician assistant to educate about cardiovascular risks and how to reduce them. Researchers want to see if this approach is practical and helps patients start medications like statins when needed.
