Age is the most significant risk of prostate cancer because the disease is rarely seen in men under the age of 40. The risk of developing prostate cancer increases substantially after a man turns 50, and two-thirds of men diagnosed with the disease are over 65. It is not scientifically known why age plays such an important role in the risk of prostate cancer.
