Experts like University of Alberta oncology professor John Lewis state that the vast majority of men will have some cancer in their prostate at some point in their lives.
John Lewis emphasizes that while localized prostate cancer has a survival rate of virtually 100 percent at five years, about 14 Canadian men are expected to die from prostate cancer every day in 2024.
Lewis categorizes prostate cancer into two types: indolent cancer, which grows slowly and is less dangerous, and metastatic cancer, which is extremely dangerous and must be caught early.
Indolent prostate cancer can be characterized as something men might die with, not necessarily from, whereas only about three percent of men will die of aggressive prostate cancer.
