Prostate Cancer Signs

ProstaEase Tincture ProstaEase is used as a male prostate tonic to help prevent benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) that is common to most men in mid-life and on. It will help reduce prostate swelling, keep testosterone healthy and help maintain a healthy libido. It also helps the dull ache, urine dribbling, weak urine flow, waking at night to urinate and can help men who have the inability to maintain an erection. If BPH exists, ProstaEase will help bring the prostate back into a healthy state and reduce all the symptoms that accompany BPH. It may help reduce the reasons why prostatic specific antigens (PSA) climb in numbers, which may be precursors to prostate cancer. ProstaEase can be used as a long-term tonic. It is a good idea for most men to treat their reproductive tracts annually with ProstaEase once they are over 50 years of age. This is when most prostate problems arise. Using ProstaEase for 1-2 months as a preventative once per year is a wise male preventative treatment f

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

I have BPH (enlarged Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia) and get up 2 to 3 times at night to urinate. I use Flomax daily.
My urology doctor says that I should get either GreenLight Laser (TUIP) or Transurethal resection of Prostate (TURP) surgery done. He says both procedures are safe. (He was leaning more towards Laser surgery).
My questions are:
a) Which one of the two procedures is safer?
b) After the surgery, urine flow will improve without medication but what about the FREQUENCY. Will I still have to get up at night to pass urine? (In other words, will it increase the capacity of my bladder?)

My doctor says "it may".

He is participating in a study that uses 120-watt GreenLight Laser to treat enlarged prostates

If it were me I would go for the laser treatment. Afterwards your flow should increase and you should not have to get up in the night to urinate as there should be less pressure on your urethra and bladder because the prostate will be less enlarged. Go for it and good luck.

Okay I have been highly stressing over this for the past week. I have come a long way from my initial question as to whats wrong with me. To some up I am a body builder. I use all types of supplements, for the past 3 months I was on Testosterone boosters, not to be confused with anabolic steriods. They naturally raise Testosterone levels, then in the past month and a half I got on pro hormone which is basically a naturally occuring compound that converts to a small amount of an anabolic steriod. The entire month and a half I had no symptoms at all. For the end of the cycle I used a "designer anabolic" called dymethazine for about 2 weeks I had no negative side effects only great strenght\size gains. About last Wednesday I noticed that at the end of urinating I had a slight burn only for a second. Then last thursday I began to urinate very frequently and was up almost all night uriniating and it didn’t feel like my bladder was empty. I immediately got off all the supplements and went to get a Prostate Health formula from the vitamin store containing saw palmetto, pygmeium, pumpkin seed extract, etc. So in order to prevent estrogen rebound men take natural testosterone boosters to restart there natural testosterone product called Post cycle therapy. So the only supplements I use are a natural testosterone booster and this prostate health formula. The next day I noticed a slight burn while urinating just one time. My urine was a much darker color. So I took an over the counter UTI test and tested negative. As the past week went on my symptoms started to subside I noticed a little lower back pressure nothing painful. I did a lot of research looking up Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostatitis and am wondering what I have. the past week with the exception of last night I slept pretty sound and my urination is strong flowing again. Last night worried me a bit I urinated a lot but I felt relieved every time, a lot of urine came out so its not like it was only dribbling. This morning after sex I noticed my semen was thicker and slightly clumpy. The worst symptoms are gone but I have no insurance can anyone shed some insight please.
Okay Anon, I am aware there are several types of Prostatitis does mine sound like the acute bacterial prostatitis or because mine was flared up from hormonal changes what options do I have?
Well I don’t have insurance or a Job thanks to downsizeing so I’m currently unemployed and very low on money. I know there is a walk in clinic around but I don’t know if they can test me for all the signs being they are a walk in clinic I don’t know what resources they have. The earliest I can go is monday of next week can anyone suggest anything for the frequent urination until I try to see a doctor

It could be a slight case of prostatitis. I recently had similar symptoms. The frequent nightly urination stopped for me, but I still went a lot during the day and my seminal fluids were thick, clumpy, and had a yellowish tint to it. If you think it is starting to get better, give it another week or so. If you still have symptoms make an appointment to see a urologist. He can do some tests to see what the problem was. In my case I had signs of prostatitis and my prostate had some inflammation. He prescribed me some antibiotics and it cleared me right up. hope this helps.

benign prostatic hyperplasia

I don’t understand what you mean by grade either, but there is no reason to do a biopsy to diagnose BPH. What really matters is how much the symptoms bother you and treatment is not always easy. Be sure to see a urologist for this do not rely on your primary care physician.

Make sure the loo is not too far away!

Hi elmo. I just did a ‘quick review’ of the medical literature on this issue on Pubmed/Medline. Several medical studies suggest a slight decreased risk of BPH in men who consume alcohol on a regular basis. Based on these studies it is not likely that red wine will help (serve as treatment) but a glass of red wine with dinner probably does no harm.

Hope this is helpful for you. Best wishes.

Is there a common group that suffer from repeat prostatitis?

Men under 25 years hardly ever have BPH.It’s a disorder of the 5th-6th decade of life.
That said,however,Prostatitis is a different kettle of fish altogether.Retrograde ejaculation (such as occurs sometimes during furtive masturbation) and urethritis (either sexually transmitted or otherwise) have roles to play in the pathophysiology of Prostatitis.
These 2 factors are commoner in men between 18-35 years.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia question??????????
Is it possible to get BPH at 21? cuz i frequently have to urinate

It is possible to get BPH at 21, however frequent urination can be caused by many things including UTI, diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus, or simply drinking too much caffeine which is a diuretic. There are other causes to frequent urination as well. If your symptoms don’t improve or get worse within the next few days then you should see your doc.

none, unless you are having problems. meds that shrink the prostate contain estrogens, which have other issues in a male body. yes, they shrink the prostate, but can also cause sexual problems or developing breast tissue. doctors only use them in cases where the enlarged gland is obstructing urine flow or causing pain. also, dont assume BPH if it isnt a doctor saying that. you can’t diagnose yourself safely. dont assume it is one thing or another, because the same symptoms can be prostate cancer or other issues.

If you have BPH, try NOT to take medications such as antihistamines, diuretics, decongestants, antispasmodics, tranquilizers and certain types of antidepressants. These can weaken the bladder muscle or narrow the opening of the prostate and worsen the BPH symptoms.

I have this illness and is planning to take saw palmetto but I’m not sure if it is effective.

There is quite a lot of data in respected literature regarding the efficacy of Saw Palmetto Berry (Serenoa repens) in the treatment of BPH. I would recommend you take a jaunt on pubmed and see for yourself.

The key influence of Serenoa is the inhibition of an enzyme that converts regular testosterone into an extremely powerful form that generally is not supposed to last very long in your system. This powerful form of testosterone is responsible for enlarging the prostate and probably has a hand in prostate cancer. It also is the culprit in a lot of male pattern hair loss. Why is that strong hormone sticking around longer than it should? We think it’s because of the Western diet -high in red meat and junk. Our livers are responsible for neutralizing that strong hormone and when they are taxed with all the junk and extra hormones of our modern diets they cant keep up. In Western cultures -esp US, we expect about 50% of men over the age of 40 to have this condition.

When you do the research you’ll see the tremendous science -but, you will also notice recent snipey reports trying to debunk it. This is from the pharmaceutical industry which is trying to push flowmax, proscar, cadura, avodart, etc……

Hi, my dad has a testosterone level of 158. He is almost 60, and he is feeling the beginning signs of BPH (enlarged prostate). Are the two related? Is this normal? Is it cancer?

I would check that testosterone level again, sounds like it would kill a horse. The enlarged prostate is normal in men over 40, predominantly at 50. I think you mean PSA or prostate specific androgen. It does not signal cancer definitely, but is related. Biopsy is next, and necessary. Sorry for your troubles, his early detection or suspicion and testing are good.

PART 2- In this second installment video, we review the technical aspects and intraoperative landmarks during treatment with a case PVP demonstration.

Anatomic landmarks which will be highlighted include:

-bladder neck
-verumontanum
-urinary sphincter
-prostatic surgical capsule
-ureteral orfices

Laser fibre handling, laser beam direction and distance from tissue will be demonstrated. Tissue vaporization will be demonstrated with efficient debulking in a bloodless fashion. At the completion of the surgery, usually in less than 1 hour, the final prostate fossa is wide open and a catheter is placed temporarily until the anasthesia wears off.
