Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the prostate gland, which is a small walnut-shaped gland located in the male reproductive system. The prostate gland produces and secretes a fluid that helps to nourish and transport sperm.

Prostate cancer occurs when the cells in the prostate gland start to grow and multiply abnormally, forming a tumor. If the tumor is left untreated, it can spread to other parts of the body and become life-threatening.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in men, particularly in older men. Some of the symptoms of prostate cancer may include difficulty urinating, pain or discomfort during urination, blood in the urine or semen, and pain in the lower back or pelvic area. However, in many cases, prostate cancer does not cause any symptoms, particularly in its early stages.
