Prostate Cancer Support Thunder Bay
Raising Our Flag Over Thunder Bay.
Prostate Cancer Support Thunder Bay is a volunteer based, non-profit organization that originated in 1994. We are a non-profit organization run by prostate cancer survivors who help other men diagnosed with this disease, and their families. If you have any questions or concerns about your prostate, visit us at one of our General meetings. Anyone with a prostate and their partners are welcome.
An excellent awareness program providing an overview of prostate cancer is available for community groups.
Early Detection Saves Lives. We believe in it so strongly that we will reimburse you for your PSA test!
1 in 9 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. The PSA test, a blood test, is a key step in early diagnosis of prostate cancer. Talk to your health care professional for information and a lab slip!
For 48 hours before the test avoid: Digital Rectal Exam (DRE), sexual activity, riding a bike (pressure on the prostate). Get your blood work done!
