Not sure I know: what NHS is, or if the data are true (33 year old, female). But Prostate cancer only occurs in men, usually over 50. Detected by screening PSA or nodule of rectal exam. If you have an insurance plan through ACA it will help, if you are uninsured, go to Charleston Memorial Hospital and ask.

NHS, prostate cancer: National Health Service will pay for all tests, examinations & necessary for treatment of prostate cancer. British Drs. tend to be less aggressive with regards to radical prostate removal surgery than in USA because, quite rightly, many low grade prostate cancer patients can be managed with surveillance (careful and safe watching). Unfortunately, some US surgeons are motivated by financial gain.

Yes: NHS is the National Health Service in the UK. As far as I know (my sister has been in England for 40 yrs) NHS pays for healthcare of all British citizens. Unless you are referring to something else by nhs???
