Prostate Cancer Awareness: Don’t Put Off the Conversation

A simple conversation about your risk can help you decide whether a prostate test is right for you.

Many men delay talking about prostate health because they feel well, feel worried about the result or cannot find the time. Prostate cancer may have no early symptoms, so it is important to know your personal risk.

A PSA test is a blood test that can help a healthcare professional assess prostate health. It cannot diagnose cancer on its own. Your age, family history and health will help guide the decision to test and any next steps.

Do not wait for symptoms to start the conversation. Speak to your healthcare professional about whether a PSA test is right for you. If testing is recommended, contact Cerba Lancet Nigeria to ask about available services.
