A member asked:
Is there any connection between bicycle riding and prostate cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No... : On the contrary, lack of exercise may be a risk factor. Other risk factors include your age, race, genetics, and family history. Prostate cancer is most common in men older than 60, african-americans have a greater risk, and greater if a sibling was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Bicycle riding by itself has no increased risk and may actually be preventative.
