My name is Alex Beviss. I am a geologist by training — I spent years working on oil platforms and in operations geology, making sense of complex data and turning it into something actionable.
That instinct to find clarity in complicated information turned out to be exactly what was needed when prostate health entered my life.
Sixteen years ago, a friend noticed something I hadn't — that I had a prostate problem I was completely unaware of.
That moment in an airport sent me home to a blank browser and the beginning of a very long education. Back then, the internet offered very little for someone trying to understand the prostate in plain language.
Today there is almost too much — and most of it is either buried in medical jargon, sensationalised by fear, or written for doctors rather than families.
Prostate Paladin was built to close that gap.
Over fifty percent of men over the age of fifty will experience prostate-related symptoms during their lifetime.
Most of them will not bring it up. Not to their doctor, not to their partner, not to their children. They push through, they adapt, they quietly reorganise their lives around a problem they will not name.
The people who notice first are almost always the family.
That is who I built Prostate Paladin for. The worried partner who doesn't know how to raise it. The adult child who clocked something at Christmas and hasn't been able to stop thinking about it. The family who has a diagnosis but no vocabulary to process it. I write for them — and I created this community for them.
I have spent sixteen years reading, researching, and eventually writing about prostate health. I have authored two books — Prostate Mania and Prostate for Women — and I show up here every week with content designed to cut through the fog and give families the knowledge, the vocabulary, and the confidence to start the conversation.
I am not a clinician. I am someone who lived this, did the work, and decided to make it easier for everyone who comes after.
Awareness is key. Knowledge is armour. You are in the right place.
