ZERO Prostate Cancer’s Post

Did you know Thanksgiving is also National Family Health History Day? As we gather around the table, let's talk about our family's health history, especially regarding prostate cancer. Family history significantly impacts prostate cancer risk, as men with a first-degree relative diagnosed with prostate cancer face a 2 to 3 times higher risk. Take a moment to complete our Prostate Cancer Family Tree—this valuable tool can help you map out your family's cancer history, including breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers, which share genetic links with prostate cancer. Understanding your family health history empowers you to make informed decisions about screening and lifestyle choices. While you can't change your genes, you can take proactive steps to manage your risk. This holiday, serve up some important health conversations alongside the turkey—it could be the most valuable dish at the table.
