Prostate Cancer Is Silent, and Why Gay Men Over 40 Must Pay Attention – Dr. Arthur L. Burnett II

Prostate cancer rarely announces itself. For many men, especially gay men over 40, the first sign comes too late. PSA testing can catch prostate cancer early, yet most men avoid the conversation or assume no symptoms means no problem. World renowned urologist Dr. Arthur L. Burnett II breaks down what every man needs to know about prostate and urological health, PSA testing, and why waiting for symptoms is a dangerous mistake. The conversation tackles cultural shame, medical avoidance, and how masculinity myths keep men from advocating for their health. This episode is a wake up call for gay men who want more years, better sex, and control over their bodies as they age. Key Takeaways from the Podcast:
  1. Why prostate cancer often shows no symptoms until it is advanced
  2. When gay men over 40 should ask for PSA testing and why it matters
  3. How health literacy and early action change long term outcomes
