2025 Bladder Cancer Awareness Month Toolkit

Bladder cancer is more common than most people think—more Americans are living with it today than the entire populations of Vermont or Wyoming. Yet, it rarely gets the attention it deserves.

That needs to change.

Understanding the signs, symptoms, and real-life impact of bladder cancer is the first step toward earlier diagnoses, better outcomes, and stronger support for those impacted. Let’s bring this important conversation into the spotlight.

Did you know? Bladder cancer is the 4th most common cancer in men in the United States — yet it doesn’t get nearly the attention it deserves.

This Bladder Cancer Awareness Month, we’re working to change that.

💬 Raising awareness isn’t just about facts — it’s about saving lives. The more people know the signs and symptoms, the more likely they are to seek early diagnosis and treatment, leading to better outcomes.

This May, during Bladder Cancer Awareness Month, let’s remember that bladder cancer doesn’t discriminate by gender, but the experience can be drastically different. Over 84,000 people will be diagnosed this year, with men making up about 75% of those cases. Yet, women—despite being diagnosed less often—often face more difficult outcomes at every stage.

Let’s raise awareness, close the gap, and make sure everyone knows the facts.

Bladder cancer is the 4th most commonly diagnosed cancer among veterans—a powerful reminder of the unique health risks faced by those who served. As they stood for us, it’s our turn to stand with them.

BCAN is leading efforts to have bladder cancer recognized as a presumptive illness from burn pit exposure under the PACT Act—advocating for the care and benefits our veterans deserve.

Blood in the urine, frequent urination, and pain while urinating are symptoms that should never be ignored. By staying informed and encouraging others to do the same, we move closer to earlier diagnoses and better outcomes.

Knowledge is power. Share it. Live it. Save lives.

Did you know 7 in 10 bladder cancer patients live at least five years after diagnosis? It’s a hopeful sign of progress—but we can do even better.

Let’s keep pushing for earlier detection, better treatments, and brighter futures for all.
