Prostate Cancer Signs

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.

Which medication is more effective for benign prostatic hyperplasia and male pattern hair loss: A detailed look into the 5 alpha reductase inhibitors?

The question mark should be placed after the words ‘hair loss’ and there should be a full stop at the end after inhibitors.

Make sure the loo is not too far away!

i have planed on joining the army for as long as i can remember, the bad part is i might have to have my prostate removed not for cancer but for a re occurring bacterial infection that causes inflammation and is completely benign my question is can i still join the army even though i had that surgery, also i don’t plan on going into any infantry type job, im going to go into intelligence aspect of the army, does that matter?

Sounds like you have bacterial benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The surgeries to treat this often are done as an outpatient and involve enlarging the urethra opening through the prostate.

I just had the HoLAP procedure done. It was an outpatient surgery and I was quickly back at work (complete recovery in less than 3 months). There are other laser surgeries less invasive. These types of surgeries not probably no worse than having a wisdom tooth pulled. I cannot imagine that such a surgery would prevent you from serving. But, the best way to find out s to ask a recruiter.

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.

Any sort of bad life style habits can cause negative effect to all areas of your health. I don’t know if smoking and excessive alcohol causes prostatic hyperplasia but it sure can cause many other conditions some of which could cause this issue to come up.

i just had TURP last week of jan this year. no evidence of malignancy is seen on pathology report. im taking PROSCAR
daily (finesteride) Is it enough?

The best medicine is the one that works for you. If you are having problems with the dosage or the medication, you should be talking to the doctor who prescribed it not strangers on the Internet. Why is your ativar a female?

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.

Symptoms of prostate cancer may include the following: urinary problems, such as not being able to urinate, having a hard time starting or stopping the flow of urine, needing to urinate often, especially at night, weak flow of urine, urine flow that starts and stops, pain or burning during urination, difficulty having an erection, blood in the urine or semen, and/or frequent pain in the lower back, hips, or upper thighs. Prostate cancer usually does not cause symptoms in the beginning stages. By the time symptoms do occur, the disease may have spread beyond the prostate.

The “Prostate Cancer Treatment” report includes a review of possible signs and symptoms (such as weak flow of urine or painful ejactulation); descriptions of the various tests used for diagnosis (including digital rectal exam and prostate-specific antigen test); an explanation of the various stages of prostate cancer (Stages I, II, III, and IV); an overview of treatment options (including watchful waiting, surgery, and radation therapy); and also includes 10 pages of related medical terminology (to help you understand what your medical provider is talking about.
