Why Buckingham Palace announces King Charles’ prostate
It was explained that the reason for the publicity around the king’s surgery has been described as an opportunity to encourage other men to check their prostate in accordance with public health advice.
The palace said that the prostate, which the king sought treatment for, is common with thousands of men each year
Recall that King Charles III was installed in May 2023, barely a year after he became the British monarch, following her mother’s death, Queen Elizabeth II.
