About Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed non-skin cancer in men in the United States. One in six American men will develop prostate cancer in the course of his lifetime. According to the Prostate Cancer Foundation, when caught early, prostate cancer has a five-year survival rate of nearly 100 percent.
