  When cells in the prostate gland begin to grow out of control, prostate cancer develops. Only males have a gland called the prostate. It produces a portion of the fluid that makes up semen. The prostate is located in front of the rectum, which is the last part of the intestines. It is below the bladder, which is a hollow organ that stores urine. Seminal vesicles, or glands that produce most of the fluid for sperm, are located just behind the prostate. The center of the prostate is where the urethra, the tube that takes urine and sperm out of the body through the penis, is located. Prostate Cancer usually does not cause symptoms in early stages.
