Prostate Cancer Awareness Month
Free prostate tests every March.
Each March, the ACQP Foundation gives away free prostate tests as part of our commitment to men’s health awareness. The initiative encourages members to take an informed next step and talk about concerns.
Our dedicated test page explains how to enquire, what to ask and where to find trusted information before making your decision.
Find out about the March offerA conversation can be the first step.
Prostate cancer risk increases with age. Black men and people with a family history of prostate cancer have a higher risk. Early prostate cancer may have no symptoms, so feeling well does not tell you your individual risk.
If you notice changes such as needing to pass urine more often, difficulty passing urine or blood in your urine, speak to your GP. These changes can have causes other than cancer, but should be checked.
Do not wait for the March campaign if you have symptoms or a health concern. A healthcare professional can advise you on the right next step.
Prostate health information is relevant to anyone with a prostate, including some trans women and non-binary people.
