Many men don’t realize how common prostate cancer is—or how manageable it can be when caught early. These 7 essentials could save lives.

1. It’s the 2nd Most Common Cancer in U.S. Men

3. Early Stages Often Show No Symptoms

Prostate cancer can grow quietly. That’s why regular screenings are critical—even if you feel healthy.

4. Urination Changes Can  Be a Warning

Difficulty starting, stopping, or increased frequency at night could be early signs of prostate issues—not just aging.

5. Family History Matters

If a father or brother had prostate cancer, your risk can double. Early screening is even more important.

6. African-American Men Face Higher Risk

Black men are not only more likely to get prostate cancer—they’re also more likely to get aggressive forms of it.

7. Screening Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All

PSA tests and digital rectal exams are helpful tools. Talk with your doctor about when and how often you should test.

Treatment Options Are Expanding

From surgery to active surveillance to radiation, treatment is more personalized than ever—and often less invasive.

Be Proactive, Not Passive

Knowing your risk, symptoms, and screening options gives you power. Don’t wait—your future self will thank you.
