Prostate Cancer Causes, Risk Factors, and Prevention

Get informed this #ProstateCancerAwarenessMonth. 👉 Learn about the risk factors for prostate cancer and what you might be able to do to help lower your risk:

cancer.org

There are things you can do that might help lower your chances of getting prostate cancer: ✅ Get to and stay at a healthy weight 🏃‍♂️ Keep physically active 🥦 Follow a healthy eating pattern

Researchers have found several factors that might affect a man’s risk of getting prostate cancer: ➡️ Age - About 6 in 10 cases are found in men 65+ ➡️ Race/ethnicity - More likely to develop in non-Hispanic Black men ➡️ Family history - Seems to run in some families

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in American men (after skin cancer). Researchers do not know exactly what causes prostate cancer, and there is no sure way to prevent it, but there are things you can do that might help lower your risk. #ProstateCancerAwarenessMonth 🧵
