Is it possible for 14 years olds to be diagnosed with prostrate cancer?!
Question: It is virtually unknown for teenage boys to have prostate cancer. In fact it is extremely rare to get it under 50 years of age. However, might it be that you are asking the question because you or someone you know are having symptoms similar to those of prostate cancer? Urinary tract infections (UTI's) can mimic many of the symptoms. Best bet is to see your GP. A simple urine test can uncover the problem.

There has been speculation that environmental exposures may be involved in the aetiology of testicular cancer in adolescent boys and young men. Indirect evidence for this hypothesis would be provided by the finding of space-time clustering. To examine this we have looked for evidence of space-time clustering using data from a population-based cancer registry from Northern England. All cases of testicular cancer diagnosed in males aged 15
