What Causes Prostate Cancer?

Is it possible for a healthy man to contract prostate cancer by having intercourse with a woman who lost her husband to prostate cancer? Possibly by her carrying something from her husbands semen. I'm a bit of a hypochondriac and this fear is keeping me from a relationship with a very nice woman.

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Prostate cancer does not cause by the way you mentioned. So no need to worry for this thing.
Prostate cancer is age related cancer of men.
It is seen in old age men with age more than 60 years. Family history of prostate cancer is also a risk factor.
But by no means, it caused due to sexual Intercourse.
So, you can have relationship with that woman without fear of getting prostate cancer.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
