Prostate Cancer Risk Factors You Can't Change

• Gender (only males have prostates)
• Family History (brother or father)
• Age (over 55 the risk increases steadily)
• Race (black males have a higher incidence)

Prostate screening consisting of a Digital Rectal Exam (DRE) and a Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) test should happen annually once a man turns 50. If you are at increased risk the exams should start earlier in life.
