Various Types Involved in Prostate Cancer

Maxlyse Bedell

 Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that occurs in the prostate gland, which is a small, walnut-sized gland located below the bladder in men. It is one of the most common types of cancer in men, and it typically develops slowly over many years [1]. The exact cause of prostate cancer is not fully understood, but there are several risk factors that are associated with an increased risk of developing the disease, including age (prostate cancer is most common in men over the age of 50), family history of prostate cancer, and certain genetic mutations. Symptoms of prostate cancer may include difficulty urinating, weak or interrupted urine flow, blood in the urine or semen, pain or discomfort in the pelvic area, and bone pain [2].
