The prostate is a doughnut shaped gland located behind the pubic bone and below the bladder in males. It surrounds the neck of the bladder and the urethra, a small tubular structure that drains urine from the bladder to the penis. The prostate gland is a common site of disorders in the male genitourinary system. As men age, their prostate gland often enlarges. This condition is referred to as Benign Prostate Hypertrophy or BPH. Over 50% of American men will develop an enlarged prostate in their lifetime. Dietary supplementation of nutrients essential for prostate health have been shown to be effective in the relief of BPH. Cancer of the prostate is a common malignancy in American men, second only to skin cancer. In fact, nearly 200,000 American men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year. Dietary supplementation of the dietary nutrients IP-6, Quercetin and Lycopene have shown to be helpful when used for Prostate cancer. Symptoms of benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancero

It would depend on if the prostate itself is swollen and choking off the urethra (which is one of the same symptoms of benign prostate hypertrophy AKA BPH). Frequent urination or the sensation of needing to go but can’t is quite common. In both cases, the person needs to see a urologist. He most likely will conduct a PSA test, the normal range for that test is 0-4. A digital exam will also help determine if there is any hardening of the prostate indicating a tumor. There is much more involved, however, if you are 50 or over, you should get a PSA test done once a year. My husband was fine last year then this year he had stage 3 prostate cancer that was discovered with the yearly test.

I wish you the best!

I need to find out what could be wrong with my dad.My father lives in Eastern Europe and he called me the other day saying that he is getting blood test done for prostate cancer.I freaked out and forgot to ask him why he thought he may have it.Also that he was gonna get ultrasound etc…He called today,said blood test results came back and it was negative for cancer cells so whatever they found b4 was not cancerous.But he said that for past year he had to go to bathroom many times especially in the middle of the night and even after he goes,he doesnt feel that he had emptied,like there was still urine left,so he will be having ultrasound done soon to see what may be wrong.He doesn’t have UTI,he doesn’t see blood in urine.What are other possible causes for these symptoms cause it’s been going on for a long time.Thanx for all answers in advance.

In older people, prostate gland is enlarged due to age and Not due to anything else and that will cause the problems you mentioned. He will need to take a pill daily and the problem will be in check. ultimately he will some scrapping of his prostate, done by a long tube and then scrapping inside, he may need to stay in the hospital for a day or so. This is so common operation that may be one in a million will have problem, so I would not worry too much

For years now, I’ve had many of the symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate. Difficulty starting, weak stream, getting up at night, and going frequently. I haven’t experienced any pain associated with this. I recently had a prostate exam and also the blood test for prostate cancer, both of which were negative. My doctor gave me a prescription to knock out any possible bladder infection, but that didn’t change anything. Is there any other condition that could cause these symptoms?

I’m a fit 33 year old, no immediate family history of prostate cancer. I drink about 16 oz of coffee in the morning, and then plenty of tea and water throughout the day. I excercise 5 evenings a week, and drink a moderate amount of water afterwards. I think this may explain the frequency but don’t know about other symptoms.

I’m a nurse. Your muscles are weak in this area, this is the result. I wouldn’t worry but try to drink fluids in moderation. This could also contribute to your problem. Tea and/coffee can make the muscles weak as well. I hope this helps you. Take care and all the best.

MaleBalance Cream is a combination of ingredients that have been studied for their ability to meet mens changing needs which are brought on as a natural part of the aging process. Application is made simple with the convenient pump dispenser. Progesterone for Prostate Health James South, M.A. For middle-aged and older men, especially those over age 50, prostate problems are an unpleasant fact of life. It is estimated that half of men in the 50-plus age group suffer from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), an abnormal enlargement of the prostate gland. This swelling of the prostate usually manifests as urinary problems: urinary frequency, urinary hesitation, reduced urinary flow, etc. The prostate gland is also the most common site for cancer to develop, with over 300,000 new cases in the U.S. in 1996. The medical establishment places the blame for these prostate problems on the male hormones testosterone (T) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT), yet this belief generates an obvious paradox. The highest levels of T/DHT occur in young men, and T/DHT levels drop with aging. Yet prostate problems are almost non-existent in young men, while they increase with age, affecting 90 percent of all men by age 85, when T/DHT levels are extremely low. The Estrogen Connection An important determinant of male hormonal health is the testosterone/estrogen balance (T/E). Healthy male physiology depends on a high T:E ratio. Although testosterone is the male hormone, men naturally produce small amounts of estrogen from testosterone. With aging, the T:E ratio drops, often dramatically. An enzyme called aromatase, especially prevalent in fat cells, converts testosterone to estrogen. Since most men lose muscle and gain fat as they age, aromatase activity increases, reducing testosterone even as it increases estrogen. Many scientists have commented on the importance of estrogen and the T:E ratio in promoting prostate problems. M. Krieg and colleagues note numerous experiments indicate that

Green tea comes from the same plant as black tea: Camellia sinensis. The difference is that green tea is steamed after picking, but not fermented. The lack of fermentation allows green tea to retain a number of bioactive substances called polyphenols.1 The main classes of polyphenols are phenolic acids and flavonoids. Among the more abundant flavonoids are the catechins (pronunciation: KAT-eh-kins). In recent years green tea has attracted the attention of medical researchers who are exploring its therapeutic potential for the following conditions: cancers of the lung, liver, mouth, colon, rectum, bladder, stomach, pancreas, esophagus, prostate, and skin1,2 B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia3 high blood pressure, high cholesterol, atherosclerosis, high blood sugar, and heart disease4,1 Parkinsons and Alzheimers diseases5,6 viral and bacterial infections7, including influenza8 tooth decay, bad breath9,10 The component of green tea that has generated the most interest is the catechin epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Many of the potential applications of green tea have been attributed to EGCGs antioxidant properties, but may actually involve other mechanisms.1 For example, EGCG is also a strong inhibitor of the enzyme telomerase that is required for tumor growth.11 Experiments have shown that EGCG and other ingredients in green tea can kill cancer cells while sparing (and even protecting) healthy cells.12 The concentrations of EGCG used in anti-cancer experiments have usually been higher than could be obtained in the body by the drinking of green tea.1 Green tea extracts that contain EGCG in concentrated form offer a practical way to

im 20 yrs old and im experiencing a burning sensation when i urinate. i think this is a symptom of a prostate cancer

It sounds more like a urinary tract infection to me. And it won’t go away by itself. You have to get antibiotics from your doctor, and be sure to take them all, even though you feel better. If prostate cancer runs in your family, you might want to have it checked out. But 20 yrs old sounds very young. Most men don’t start getting symptoms till well after 50. The main symptom is not being to empty your bladder, and having a very weak stream.

From the Prostate Cancer Foundation website:

A need to urinate frequently, especially at night;
Difficulty starting urination or holding back urine;
Weak or interrupted flow of urine;
Painful or burning urination;
Difficulty in having an erection;
Painful ejaculation;
Blood in urine or semen; or
Frequent pain or stiffness in the lower back, hips, or upper thighs.

i have a friend who has something wrong with his prostate ,the doctor told him that he might have prostate cancer , he needs to check further .what are symptoms of prostate cancer ?

The only true symptoms of prostate cancer are and elevated PSA test. An enlarged prostate itself if not always cancer. That could be benign prostatic hypertrophy aka an enlarged prostate. My dad has prostate cancer plus I am a nurse so if you have more questions just ask.

Nutritional Support For:• Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (prostate enlargement) • Prostatitis • Prostate Cancer Protection Nearly 60% of men between the ages of 40 and 60 have an enlarged prostate gland, known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The annual medical cost for BPH in the U.S. alone is over a billion dollars. Rectal examination usually discloses an enlarged prostate gland with a rubbery consistency. BPH is attributed to a buildup of testosterone in the prostate. Once inside the prostate, testosterone is converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a powerful substance that stimulates the prostatic cells to multiply excessively. As the prostate enlarges it presses against the urethra, thus obstructing the flow of urine from the bladder.
