[PMID 16921512] In one large Swedish study, men with one or two rs2987983(C) alleles were reported to be at somewhat increased (odds ratio 1.22) risk for Prostate cancer compared to men homozygous for the wild type rs2987983(T) allele, however the risk can be reduced by adding phytoestrogens to the diet.
