Prostate Cancer in black men.

Welcome back to season 2!

This episode I featured on DR Mo  aka MDO of a Slice of health podcast – talking about prostate cancer in black men. 

• This was an amazing episode to discuss prostate cancer especially how it affects black men and how we can demystify the stigma associated with screening and testing⁣

• 1 in 8 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime .

Prostate cancer does affect black men at a rate 4x compared to their Caucasian counterparts⁣

• Although the PSA TEST is used in prostate cancer it is not that specific for prostate cancer with about 75% of men with a raised PSA not having Cancer.
