welcome to the PPML

A Prostate Cancer Discussion List

Since 1995, the mission of the PPML has been to provide a forum for prostate cancer survivors, their families, and their supportive friends to exchange information about prostate cancer. Medical professionals sometimes also contribute to the discussions. We invite you to draw on the knowledge, experience, and empathetic support of our approximately 1300 participants by subscribing to our discussion list and presenting any questions you may have. Questions and responses to questions are what has made the PPML the valuable resource that many of us have found it to be for many years.

The PPML is one of over 100 cancer related mailing lists and web sites hosted by the servers of ACOR, the Association of Cancer On-Line Resources, a 501(c)3 private foundation. The ACOR discussion lists are maintained entirely by volunteers.

You can subscribe to the PPML on the ACOR-maintained Subscription page:
