  • Germline genetic testing for prostate cancer is helping to inform risk stratification and staging of prostate cancer and also screening for men with family history of prostate cancer. Genetic counseling is an important piece of germline genetic testing; however there can be limitations of access to genetic counselors and other genetic professionals. It is important to integrate genetic counseling with urology and primary care practices.
