  2. Prostate cancer happens in your prostate which is a tiny walnut-like gland present in men. It’s responsible for producing seminal fluid that helps nourish and transport sperms.  Prostate cancer is proven to be one of the most widely prevalent cancer types in men.  By and large, the growth of prostate cancer happens slowly.  It’s, at first, confined only to the prostate gland where there may be very little chances of cancer to cause serious harm to the gland.  But, even though a few types of prostate cancer show slow development and possibly will require nominal treatment or even no treatment at all, there are other types which are believed to highly aggressive and have the propensity to spread in a rapid manner, a stage known as “prostate cancer metastasis”.  Early detection of prostate cancer, at cancer hospitals in India, while it remains shut inside the prostate gland has an improved chance of successful treatment and rehabilitation.
