Blue November is an international awareness campaign carried out by various entities in November aimed at society and, in particular, men, to raise awareness about male diseases, with emphasis on prevention and early diagnosis of prostate cancer.
During this month, we invite Seta employees to wear something blue on Fridays, demonstrating our support for the cause. In addition, we will share relevant tips and information on the topic.
But what kind of cancer is this anyway?
Cells are the smallest parts of the human body. Throughout life, cells multiply, replacing older ones with new ones. But in some cases, an uncontrolled growth of cells can occur, forming tumors that can be benign or cancer.
Prostate cancer, in most cases, grows slowly and does not show signs during life or threaten the health of the man. In other cases, it can grow rapidly, spread to other organs and cause death.
Therefore, adopting healthy practices reduces the risk of several diseases, including cancer.
Take preventive exams and take care of your health!
