Prostate Cancer Awareness Month

Next month is Prostate Cancer Awareness month.

One in eight men will get prostate cancer. It is not always life-threatening, but when it is, the earlier you catch it the more likely it is to be cured.

There are certain factors that might put you at higher risk of developing the condition.

These include if you’re aged 50 and over, if you are black or if a close blood relative such as your dad or brother have had prostate cancer.
