Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, as confirmed by his spokesperson. The diagnosis came after a small nodule was evaluated during a routine examination at a Philadelphia hospital. While the cancer is aggressive, it is also hormone-sensitive, which provides a better outlook for treatment. Biden's family is currently discussing treatment options with physicians. Prostate cancer is a significant health concern, especially for men over 50, and early detection through regular check-ups is crucial for better management and outcomes.
Former President Joe Biden is battling what his spokesperson called on Sunday an aggressive form of prostate cancer.
The cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive, which allows for effective management, the Biden spokesperson said in a statement.
Prostate cancer is the second-most common form of cancer among men in New York City, with more than 320,000 expected diagnoses nationwide this year.
Men over the age of 50 or who have a history of prostate cancer in their family should be tested.
