My husband’s father and brother both died from prostate cancer before age 70. Should we expect my husband to die from this disease as well?

While prostate cancer does run in families, your husband’s fate from the same illness is not inevitable. He should be sure to have a physical exam each year (or more often) which includes a PSA blood test. That simple blood test and physical exam can detect disease in its early stages and give him his best hope for a complete cure.
