Prostate cancer causes pain in men who have the disease.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
6 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that prostate cancer causes pain in men who have the disease?

Unclear. Several sources indicate that pain occurs in men with prostate cancer, but mainly in advanced or metastatic disease (bone metastases) and not in all men who have the disease; early-stage disease is often asymptomatic. No retrieved source establishes that prostate cancer causes pain in men generally.
