After a cancer diagnosis, statistics about the disease take on greater importance. Even if it’s not the cancer you personally have. Early detection remains the best way to address any sort of cancer, as evidenced by a new report that just came out.

The American Cancer Society released “Prostate Cancer Statistics, 2025,” a report on current prostate cancer occurrence and outcomes in the United States.

According to the study, prostate cancer incidence rates have reversed from a decline of 6.4% per year during 2007 through 2014 to an increase of 3% annually during 2014 through 2021, with the steepest increase (4.6%-4.8% per year) for advanced-stage diagnoses.

Simultaneously, mortality declines slowed from 3% to 4% per year during the 1990s and 2000s to 0.6% per year over the past decade.
