Does enlarge prostate equate to prostate cancer usually?

Not at all. This is more likely to be due to a condition called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) than prostate cancer. By the age of 50, about 1 in 7 men will experience prostate cancer while 1 in 2 men will experience BPH. 

To answer a related question, BPH does NOT increase your risk for prostate cancer.

You should visit a doctor, preferably a urologist, to be sure.

If you have a history of Prostate cancer in the family - father, uncle, grandfather - you should get a serum PSA test and uro consult at the age of 40. If you don't have a history, do it at the age of 50. If one family member is diagnosed with Prostate CA, u should know that at least one per generation or one every 2 generations may develop the same CA. If prostate CA is diagnosed in a male relative, you should know that a female relative may develop breast CA because the two CAs are interrelated.
