Cancer develops when the body's cells proliferate uncontrollably. Cancer cells can develop in almost any body part and spread to others. Moreover, prostate cancer develops when cells in the prostate gland begin to proliferate uncontrollably. Only men have the prostate gland. It generates some of the ?uid that is present in sperm. This blog will shed light on the factors responsible for causing prostate cancer, which will help understand those at risk for prostate cancer. The blog contains detailed insights shared by expert urologist Dr. Niren Rao, renowned for providing the best Prostate Cancer Surgery in Delhiat Delhi Urology Hospital. A risk factor increases the chances of having a disease like cancer. Risk factors for various malignancies vary. Certain risk factors, such as smoking, can be altered. Others, such as a person's age or family background, cannot be changed. However, having one or more risk factors does not guarantee that one will get the disease. Many people with one or more risk factors never acquire cancer, while others with cancer may have few or no known risk factors. Researchers have discovered many elements that may in?uence a man's risk of developing prostate cancer. • Age Prostate cancer is uncommon in men under the age of 40, but the risk increases dramatically beyond the age of 50. Men over 65 account for approximately 6 out of every 10 incidences of prostate cancer. • Race/ethnicity African American males and Caribbean men of African background are more likely than other men to develop prostate cancer. When it does appear in these boys, it is usually when they are younger. In India, prostate cancer is considered one of the top ten leading cancers. Men above the 65+ age group are more affected by it; however, nowadays, youngsters are also getting it. However, the causes of these racial and ethnic variances are unknown. • Genetic History

Nonetheless, most prostate cancers arise in men with no family history of the disease. Поиск Создатьблог Войти If a man's father or brother has prostate cancer, his chances of getting it are more than doubled. (The risk is larger for men with a sibling with the disease than for those with a father with the disease.) The risk is substantially higher for men with numerous affected relatives, especially if the cancer was discovered when the relatives were young. • Gene Mutations Several inherited gene alterations (mutations) appear to increase prostate cancer risk but are likely to account for only a tiny proportion of cases. As an example: • Mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes, which have been linked to an elevated risk of breast and ovarian cancer in some families, can also raise the risk of prostate cancer in men (particularly mutations in BRCA2). • Men with Lynch syndrome (also known as hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer, or HNPCC), a disorder caused by inherited gene alterations, are more likely to develop prostate cancer. In addition, some other factors that have a less apparent impact on prostate cancer risk are diet, obesity, smoking, chemical exposure, vasectomy, sexually transmitted infections, and many more. If one is suspected of having prostate cancer, one should immediately contact a urologist. Timely consultation will help cure cancer in its early stages.
