Prostate Cancer & Veterans: Why It Matters

Prostate Cancer and Veterans

Veterans may face a higher risk of prostate cancer because of military-related toxic exposures.

What Veterans Should Know

  • Approximately 15,000 veterans are diagnosed with prostate cancer each year.

  • More than 200,000 survivors receive care through the VA.

  • Exposure to Agent Orange, burn pits, and other toxic substances may increase prostate cancer risk.

  • Eligible veterans may qualify for VA healthcare and disability benefits under the PACT Act and other presumptive exposure rules.

Veterans should discuss their individual risk and PSA screening with a healthcare provider.
