EVALUATION
When a man learns that he has prostate cancer, he, his
family and loved ones have many questions about his cancer
and how the disease is treated. They find that their distress
eases as they gain an understanding about the disease.
This section of the web site is designed to help you better
understand and cope with your diagnosis of prostate cancer.
In addition to this section, there are several resources
in our links and resource section for your assistance.
Local libraries, cancer societies, and support groups
can help you find other resources that are available.
Cancer of the prostate is the most common cancer among
American men. Over 230,000 cases are diagnosed each year.
This means that one in six men over age 50 will develop
prostate cancer. The likelihood of getting prostate cancer
is higher in men over 65, men with a blood relative that
had prostate cancer, and in African American men.
