Like breast cancer, prostate cancer has a good prognosis in most cases.

Men over the age of 45 must undergo rectal exams annually. Due to the genetic component of the disease, people who have cases of prostate and breast cancer in the family must undergo annual exams from the age of 40 onwards.

Scientific research still does not demonstrate a clear relationship between prostate cancer and factors related to diet and lifestyle. However, maintaining proper habits is always important to ensure healthy aging.
