Introduction
Prostate cancer is a kind of cancer which befalls a man’s prostate glands. The prostate is a little walnut-like gland that forms the seminal juices to transport and nourish a man’s sperms. As breast cancer is common in women, prostate cancer is mutual among men whereby it develops gradually and it is usually confined within the prostate glands. This form of cancer has little effect in a man’s body but when it is not treated, it can heighten its rate of development to aggressively spread to other regions of the body. In America, the African American men are prone to this disease where they have a heightened degree of prostate morbidity as well as prostate mortality as it is equated to the other racial groups in the States.
