More than 3000 men die


each year from prostate


cancer?


There are many health issues facing men in our community
but prostate is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and
is the 3rd largest cause of cancer death in men. 1 in 5
Australian men will develop prostate cancer in their lifetime
so it’s time to raise awareness. Unfortunately, the early
stages of prostate cancer may not always show symptoms.
It is for this reason that regular check-ups are essential,
especially if you are over 50 years of age or have family
history.

Early detection can be


lifesaving!


The early detection of prostate cancer can be identified
using either the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test
and digital rectal examination allows for treatment that can
significantly improve patient survival. Currently, the 5-year
survival rate for prostate cancer is over 92%, with the 10-
year survival rate standing at 93% and the 15-year survival
rate standing at 77%.

Pee for Prostate!


The AFLCA endorses early detection and encourages all
men to get checked, which brings us to- The Peeball. Since
its launch in 1991, millions of men around the world have
played Peeball, turning a health check into a fun game!
Peeballs are 100% biodegradable balls that disintegrate in
water and are an easy way for men to check their prostate.
Pick up a Peeball from Chemist Warehouse, where funds
raised go to prostate cancer research, then grab your mates,
find a urinal and Pee for Prostate!
