Prostate cancer awareness month

September is prostate cancer awareness month.  Prostate cancer kills about 3,000 men in Australia every year.  It is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men.

It is recommended that men over 50, or men over 40 with a family history of prostate cancer, should talk to their doctor about whether they should have a test for prostate cancer each year as part of an annual health check-up.

There are a range of different treatment options available if prostate cancer is diagnosed.

There are also many support groups available to help men with prostate cancer, including a Chinese Cancer Society of Victoria support group based in Box Hill, which can be contacted on 0411 109 919 .
