Closed Introduce prostrate screening for men from 55 years of age.

Closed on

I know a small group of guys where 6 people have been diagnosed with prostrate cancer, sadly one of these recently passed away. Earlier screening could have prevented this death.

Prostrate cancer in men is growing as reported in many media reports. Woman get screened for Breast cancer and with the increase in prostrate cancer earlier screening can save lives and reduce NHS costs.
