"More guys die from prostrate cancer than women of breast cancer; guess which month prostrate cancer awareness is?"

young women DIE of breast cancer..in their 20's or 30s' or 40's....

prostate is RARE under age 60 for men..

and its slow growing..

most men who die "from" prostate cancer have other medical issues and are elderly...infact, a large percentage of men have traces of prostate cancer when they're elderly....

long and the short of it, young and youngish women die from breast cancer, young or youngish men do not....

I am currently being treated for prostrate cancer. My treatment is a three stage treatment. Harmone therapy, external radiation therapy, and HDR radiation therapy. The finger wave as some of us call it is for colon cancer (nothing to screw with) 🙄 I might add. They check males PSA level and track it. A rising PSA reading can call for a prostrate biopsie. Then figure out what stage you’re in. Men live long enough they will most likely get it. Probably not what will kill them. Generally it progresses slowly. If the drs find it in a mans mid to late 70’s they let it run. Chance of death from other causes is more likely than prostrate cancer. If diagnosed early in life the drs get after it. Personnaly I don’t give a damn what kills who or which sex mostly. You get one of the cancers you won’t either. Be safe all.
