About 60% of prostate cancers are diagnosed in men older than 65.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Race\/ethnicity.Prostate cancer develops more often in men of African and Caribbean descent\u00a0 and when it does develop it is usually more aggressive and happens at a younger age.It is less common among Asian, Hispanic, and Latino men whereas Caucasians are somewhere in between.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Family history. Prostate cancer is more common among some families, and in 3-7% of all cases there may be an inherited or genetic factor.Having a father or brother with prostate cancer more than doubles a man\u2019s risk of developing this disease.The more affected relatives someone has,the higher the risk.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Inherited gene changes.Certain gene changes that are inherited from a parent can raise prostate cancer risk, although these probably account for only a small percentage of prostate cancers overall.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gfragkoulis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/condition_faq\/1758","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gfragkoulis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/condition_faq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gfragkoulis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/condition_faq"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gfragkoulis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1758"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"faq-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gfragkoulis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq-category?post=1758"},{"taxonomy":"service_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gfragkoulis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/service_type?post=1758"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
