Blue September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month
This month is all about raising awareness about prostate cancer and encouraging men, especially those over 50yrs (or 40yrs with a family history), to get regular prostate health check-ups and screenings.
Remember, early detection dramatically improves treatment outcomes and survival rates.
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers diagnosed in men and a leading cause of cancer death for men in New Zealand.
