September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, a time to focus on the risks and disparities surrounding this disease. Prostate cancer disproportionately affects Black men, who are more likely to be diagnosed at later stages and face double the mortality rate compared to White men.
This week's featured article provides an overview of symptoms, risk factors, and treatment options for prostate cancer, emphasizing the importance of early detection and equitable healthcare access.
