Whether you are trying to protect your own health or take care of the men in your life, early detection and screening is the key. Here are five things you can do to honor yourself and those at risk.
- Know Your Risks!
Prostate cancer is the 2nd most common cancer among men, and over 34,000 men will die from prostate cancer in the whole World in 2022. Yet it’s also one of the most treatable, and, in some cases, does not even require immediate treatment.
