How many of our Fathers had BPH Prostate issues or Prostate Cancer

Not sure about my dad but my brother had pc around the same time I did and he went on to have pancreatic cancer. My Uncle also had pancreatic cancer. It’s hard to fully understand the confusing cancer waves related to genetics but all we can do is stay vigilant.

Those cancers are all related to having the BRCA genetic Defect. Have you had your hereditary genetics checked? The reason you want to do this is, if your children also have it they are warned about possible cancers.
If you live in the USA, you can get your Hereditary, genetic test for free from the below link. Don’t say that you want your doctor involved or they won’t send you the kit until they speak to your doctor. A geneticist will contact you about the results.
