Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that affects a part of the male reproductive system. This medical condition occurs when cancer cells have formed in the tissues of the prostate, which is located below the bladder and in front of the rectum. This is the second most common type of cancer among men in the United States. Possible risk factors for prostate cancer may include age, race, family history, and diet.
