Prostate Cancer Awareness Paracord Bracelet

What is prostate cancer?

Like all forms of cancer, prostate cancer stars when the cells in the prostate gland begins to grow uncontrollably. Some of the fluid that is part of the male's semen is made by the prostate gland.  Only males have prostate gland. So, only men can acquire this disease.  

Men aged 65 or older are the most susceptible to acquire and be diagnosed with prostate cancer. While it is rare that men bellow 40 years old will acquire this disease, there are cases of men younger than 40 that were diagnosed with prostate cancer.

The risk of being diagnosed with prostate cancer is very high. In fact, 1 out of 7 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime. And behind lung cancer, prostate cancer comes in close second as the leading cause of cancer deaths not only for American men but also to all men around the world.

There are several types of prostate cancer. But the most common is the adenocarcinomas. The cancer that develops from the cell glands. The other types of prostate cancer include:

1. Sarcomas
2. Small cell carcinomas
3. Neuroendocrine tumors
4. Transitional cell carcinomas

It is estimated that more than 1 million of the male population around the world is diagnosed with prostate cancer every year. In the United State alone, it was found out that more than 200,000 new cases of prostate cancer is recorded annually. And out of these more than 200,000 prostate cancer patients, about 30,000 of them will die of prostate cancer. This is the main reason why advocates of prostate cancer awareness are in a rush to educate as many people as they can about prostate cancer.

There are many groups and companies that supports and helps spread prostate cancer awareness. The Handmade By Heroes, a company that supports and employs American veterans is just one of them.

Spreading awareness regarding prostate cancer can be done in so many ways. Prostate Cancer Awareness themed products such as T-Shirts, mugs, posters and work of arts like paintings are just some of the effective ways of letting people know about prostate cancer. Handmade jewelries such as necklaces, rings, and bracelets can also do the trick.

The Handmade By Heroes Prostate Cancer Awareness Bracelet is a good example of this. A beautifully handcrafted work of art carefully and meticulously made by American Veterans that you can wear around your wrist anytime and anywhere to show and help spread prostate cancer awareness to other people most especially men who doesn't have much knowledge on what prostate cancer is all about.

While it is true that prostate cancer awareness has significantly grown over the past few years, a great deal of misinformation or the lack of information has also spread with it. That is why prostate cancer awareness themed products and materials like the Handmade By Heroes Prostate Cancer Awareness Bracelet can go a long way in spreading and educating people about the said disease.

A Family who has a member diagnosed with prostate cancer should also be the first ones to volunteer or make way to spread awareness about this condition. They should be the first ones to use and patronize prostate cancer awareness themed products like the Handmade By Heroes Prostate Cancer Awareness Bracelet in order to show to everyone that being diagnosed with prostate cancer is not the end of the world, and if detected early, prostate cancer can be cured and defeated.

Another way to spread awareness on prostate cancer is by knowing what time of the year (September) prostate cancer awareness is celebrated. By knowing this, you can plan an activity that does not only raise prostate cancer awareness but also raises funds to help those people who are suffering from prostate cancer.

Every September when prostate cancer awareness is celebrated, it is also a great opportunity for individuals who are not aware about the condition to learn and understand more about prostate cancer. Its causes, symptoms, and its treatment.
