Risk #1: Your finger length
Your finger length? That’s right! You don’t have to be a palm reader to see the future in your hands. According to researchers at the BJC, the relative length of your fingers could point to your
prostate cancer risk. Researchers studied 5,000 men – some with
prostate cancer and some without – and discovered that those with an index finger longer than their ring finger were 33% less likely to have
prostate cancer than men with an index finger the same length or shorter than their ring finger.
Researchers claim that this has something to do with your hormone levels at birth. The more testosterone a baby is expose to in the womb, the shorter his index finger will be later in life. But don’t think of your fate as the hands of fate – experts say finger length is by no means a symptom or guarantee of
prostate cancer, but rather an alert.

The real key to healing cancer is to wipe out the stealth disease lurking behind it...
I admit I was downright shocked when I found out that cancer isn't actually what kills most cancer patients! And I've been a doctor for well over 20 years - so not much surprises me anymore.
Even more astounding - this monumental discovery goes back to the 1970s when former US Air Force Dr Joseph Gold uncovered the REAL killer, a condition that no one in the medical field was even talking about!
That's right - the real culprit behind 3 out of every 4 cancer deaths isn't cancer at all. No! It's a syndrome you've probably never even heard of - called cachexia (pronounced "ka-kek-see-ah").

Risk #2: Hair loss
Early balding isn’t just a vanity concern. Researchers says it may also be a sign of serious health problems to come. Researchers studied 669 men and found that those who began losing hair at age 20 were twice as likely to get prostate cancer later in life.
But there’s good news to this finding: Early baldness wasn’t associated with an earlier onset of prostate cancer or with more aggressive cancer. Experts can’t yet tell for sure what the connection is, but some suspect it’s related to the male hormones known as androgens (such as testosterone). These can inhibit hair growth while also triggering abnormal expansion of prostate cells.
Risk #3: The gender of your children
According to researchers, men who father only daughters are up to 60% more likely to develop prostate cancer than those who father only sons. Researchers speculate that the reason behind this may be chromosomal: It’s possible that some men are predisposed to having daughters because of certain unique characteristics on their Y chromosome (the sex-determining chromosome), which might also enhance their risk.

Risk #4: Your sex drive
Feeling more passionate than usual? This could be bad news for your prostate cancer risk, but it depends on how old you are.
Researchers studied 840 men and discovered that those who masturbated more and were more sexually active in their20s and 30s were more likely to develop prostate cancer. However, the opposite was true for men in their 40s and 50s.
Researchers say that more evidence is needed to explain this link, but speculate that the role between hormones, sex drive and prostate cancer is complex and tends to change with age.
Risk #5: Where you live
Researchers say that men who live in cities north of 40 degrees latitude have the highest risk of dying from prostate cancer – how frightening! They explain that a number of factors could be involved in this spike though, including that people who live in cities as such tend to get less sunlight during the winter and as a result have vitamin D levels, which may in turn increase prostate cancer risk.
