Prostate cancer is most common malignancy among men in the United States. As men are now living longer with prostate cancer due to advances in treatment, there exists a growing need to manage the long-term physical and psychological sequelae of this disease, which range from genitourinary dysfunction to cardiometabolic and psychosocial consequences. Over half of men with prostate cancer report unmet needs in symptom management. Integrative oncology, a patient-centered, evidence-informed field combining lifestyle, natural product, and mind–body interventions with conventional treatments, offers a promising approach to prostate cancer symptom management. This review summarizes the current landscape of integrative oncology research in prostate cancer and discusses the clinical implications.
