I know that prostate cancer can be slow growing. Depending on when the cancer is detected and if is treatable - I don't know what treatments can be done for prostate cancer - but if someone out there does, please let us know.
I do know that any cancer is more treatable the earlier it is found and that's why it so important to go for annual complete - I mean complete - checkups! it's also important for women to have mammograms, depending on their age, and regular PAP smears, also depending on the woman's age. Men, also of a certain age, should have annual prostate checkups and while we're at it, men can also have Breast cancer, so if they find unusual growths they should see their doctor immediately. Men's breast tissue is not fatty like women's breast tissue, but cancer can still develop there.
