Although the link between obesity and the risk of developing prostate cancer remains unclear, there is no question that obesity can have a negative effect on disease outcomes. Research has shown that prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test results in obese men can be lower despite the presence of disease, potentially leading to a delay in diagnosis and treatment; recovery from surgery tends to be longer and more difficult; and the risk of dying from prostate cancer can be higher.
