1 in 10 men in Scotland are diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in their lifetime, making it the most commonly diagnosed cancer among men. 5,000 men are diagnosed each year and there are currently over 32,000 living with, and after, Prostate Cancer in Scotland.
Additionally, if your father or brother has been diagnosed, you are 2.5x more likely to be diagnosed. This likelihood increasing significantly if they were diagnosed before 60 or if you have had multiple family members diagnosed.
With a survival rate of over 80%, it is one of the most treatable cancers provided it is caught early. Unfortunately, in Scotland late-stage diagnosis is more common than anywhere else in the United Kingdom (35% compared with 21% in England & 19% in Wales). This severely impacts treatment options and survival rates. A key reason behind this is there is simply not enough tests being done.
