Prostate Cancer Evidence Academy
What are the main risk factors for prostate cancer?
The top risk factors for prostate cancer are age and gender. The chance of having prostate cancer rises rapidly for men after age 50. More than 65% of prostate cancer is diagnosed in men over the age of 65. Also, prostate cancer occurs more often in African-American men than in men of other races. African-American men are more than twice as likely than white men to die of prostate cancer.
