We are a Scottish charity set up to provide information, advice and help on prostate health and diseases of the prostate. Nearly 1 in 2 men in Scotland will be affected by prostate disease at some stage of their lives and 1 in 13 will develop prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men in Scotland and is close to being the most common cancer.
Prostate Scotland aims to provide men and their families and partners with information about the prostate, specifically:
The more men who are aware of their prostate, what to look out for and how to seek help, the greater the numbers of those who can be treated. Encouragingly, survival rates have improved significantly over the past 10 years.
We have also included a simple self test tool as a useful guide to the severity of symptoms and a dietary and lifestyle section for health advice in prostate disease prevention.
