‘Normalise early prostate cancer screening’

Bulawayo Bureau

MEN have been urged to adopt prostate cancer screening amid concerns the disease has become the second most commonly diagnosed among them, accounting for 11 percent of cancer-related deaths.

Health experts say late detection often leads to fatal outcomes among men, which emphasises the urgent need for early screening, which can dramatically improve treatment success rates.

Prominent clinical oncologist Dr Tatenda Chingonzoh says men should normalise routine prostate cancer screening, highlighting that early detection significantly increases the chances of successful treatment.

Prostate cancer remains a critical health issue, particularly for black men, who are disproportionately affected by the disease.
