Understanding Prostate Cancer: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

 

Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among men worldwide. Despite its prevalence, it's a subject often shrouded in confusion and apprehension. This article aims to shed light on the critical aspects of prostate cancer, addressing frequently asked questions and exploring possible causes, symptoms, and treatments.

 

What is Prostate Cancer?

 

The prostate is a small walnut-shaped gland in males, situated just below the bladder. It plays a crucial role in the male reproductive system by producing seminal fluid, which nourishes and transports sperm. Prostate cancer occurs when cells in the prostate grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor.

 

What Causes Prostate Cancer?

 

The exact cause of prostate cancer remains elusive, but several factors can increase the risk:

 

- Age: Prostate cancer is rare in men under 40, but the risk rises significantly after age 50.

- Family History: Genetics play a role; having a father or brother with prostate cancer doubles a man's risk.

- Race: African-American men are more likely to develop and die from prostate cancer than men of other races. The reasons for this discrepancy are still being studied.

- Diet and Lifestyle: A diet high in red meat and high-fat dairy products and low in fruits and vegetables may increase the risk. Obesity has also been linked to a higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer.

 

 

How do I Know if I have Prostate Cancer?

 

Early-stage prostate cancer usually has no symptoms. However, as the disease progresses, symptoms may include difficulty urinating, decreased force in the stream of urine, blood in the urine, bone pain, and erectile dysfunction. It's important to note that these symptoms can also be caused by non-cancerous conditions, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

 

 

How is Prostate Cancer Detected?

 

Regular screenings can help detect prostate cancer in its early stages. The two primary screenings are:

 

1. Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Test: This blood test measures the level of PSA, a substance produced by the prostate. Elevated levels may suggest the presence of cancer.

 

2. Digital Rectal Exam (DRE)A physical examination where a doctor feels the prostate through the rectum to check for abnormalities.

 

If these tests indicate the possibility of cancer, a biopsy is often recommended to confirm the diagnosis.

 

What are the Treatment Options?

 

Treatment depends on the stage of cancer, a patient’s age, overall health, and their personal preferences. Options include:

 

- Active Surveillance : Monitoring the cancer closely with regular PSA tests and biopsies. Suitable for low-risk, slow-growing cancers.

-Surgery: A radical prostatectomy involves removing the prostate gland. It's often used when the cancer is confined to the prostate.

- Radiation Therapy: This includes external beam radiation or brachytherapy (placing radioactive seeds inside the prostate).

- Hormone Therapy: Reduces testosterone levels, as prostate cancer cells rely on this hormone to grow.

- Chemotherapy: Generally used for cancers that have spread outside the prostate or don’t respond to hormone therapy.

 

 

How Can Prostate Cancer be Prevented

 

Although there's no sure way to prevent prostate cancer, maintaining a healthy lifestyle may reduce your risk. This includes a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and discussing with your doctor the potential benefits and risks of screening.

 

Conclusion

 

Prostate cancer, while common, doesn't have to be a death sentence. Early detection and advancements in treatment have significantly improved outcomes. It's essential to have open discussions with healthcare providers and be informed about the risks and benefits of various screening and treatment options.

If you have any trouble urinating please go see a doctor about it. It can happen at any age. At 53 I couldn’t urinate and I let it go a little too long and ended up in the hospital. Then tested and had surgery. It’s not pleasant but wasn’t too bad and well worth your health. We men are stubborn and we need to check things out a bit quicker than our minds tell us. 

[nong38]

About 5 years ago I got a pain down below and it was painful when I went for a number 1. Paracetamol and retired to bed, seemed to do the trick but next morning things ere going backwards so I went to the hospital guessing it was a prostrate problem, blood test and urine test confirmed this and the doctors told me I had an infection. Opted for the camera to have a look inside, not pleasant but an option. Since then I have been on 2 tablets which work together and cost me about 1300 bts a month and since then no problems although as we get older going to the loo takes longer and interest in the ladies declines.

[WoodyKenny]

I can only speak of my own experience.

2023 September.

I was urinating many times during the day and night. I was in the Philippines and did a Biopsy, very unpleasant but necessary. The results - benign.  Then 3 months later nothing changed so I got a Second opinion in US, America.. Prostate Cancer was found. Aggressive State..

    

2023 April.

(Surgery Performed, Prostate Removed) 

Was healing and feeling good.  

2024 Jan - Aug

my PSA was rising (when you have no prostate you shouldn't have PSA number or should be something like 0.01..) at 0.8 we had a PetScan CTscan done. 2 small Metastasis were found 

2024 Aug

   Thailand Bumrungrad Hospital Bangkok. 6 weeks of radiation treatments.

2024 currently today, October 16th..

  Heading back to Bumrungrad Hospital for results this week.. Bumrungrad Radiation Treatment Center IS FANTASTIC AND THE BEST!  I feel positive the treatments worked.

 

So my point is this... If you feel you are urinating more frequently and or something is just off., get your back side to Bumrungrad Hospital Bangkok Thailand.  This isn't a game, you don't have time ( Although it's rare Prostate Cancer can kill you..it's the spread that might.. tumors can relocate)

   I'm living good..

I have always been in great shape. Blood work great, NO diabetes, not overweight, 25 years Military 🪖 HOOAH.

  So this can hit anyone as it doesn't segregate...

 

Anyone have any questions ❓. Feel free to hit me up at LINE: WOODY KENNY. or IM. At Woody Kenny.   

 

Side note: I lived in the Philippines with my Filipino Wife for 4 year's, have a house built, car still there. Medical is not, repeat Not the best.. Very few areas like Manila Region has decent Medical.

  But who wants to live in Manila..

 Bottom line you just don't want to get caught in the Philippines needing serious medical.. That's why I'm here in Thailand where medical is Top Self at Bumrungrad Hospital Bangkok.

   

Thank you for reading...

  Kenny

So what Disease did you have?  

   Be thankful it wasn't Prostate Cancer brother.. stay safe and avoid hanging out in the bars... Time for life changes 

[Easterneye]

Right chaps for what it’s worth please no PLEASE if your over 50 get yourself along for a PSA blood test .

ive had this done the past 11 years in the uk along with my annual full blood counts , 2 years ago I forgot to ask for my PSA test alongside my full bloods but thought ill be ok as I’ve been within region I’ll get it done next year.

So the next year November 23 I did ,, within one week I was fast tracked into urology , had an mri scan , then full bone scan , full urine tract scan , full body CT scan with contrast , had to undergo the horrendous transperenial biopsies all 30 of em 😂then after 2 months of that lot told I had prostate cancer and had to undergo 37 days of radio therapy , which I can tell you the last 3 weeks became almost impossible as you have to have a min of 280 ml in your bladder each time , and let’s just say by then your bowels and bladder are a tad over active.

Anyway the good news is 3 months on now at my first review I’ve been told my treatment has been very successful and I now have a virtually undetectable PSA of below 0.01% , and yes I will be monitored for my PSA levels for the next 10 years plus 1 more year of the hormone injections we are given.

Now then the very VERY IMPORTANT part of this story ,, I along with thousands and thousands of other men have ZERO symptoms at all , in fact when I had to do my flow test I passed it with flying colours with a score of 91% a continual flow of 568ml with only 2% residual in the bladder which they scan after your flow test.

Once again PLEASE get that PSA test done TOMMOROW

An infection of the bladder which was affecting the prostrate, the gland according to the doctors was benign and the 2 tablets I have would keep it in check.

Every year with annual health check up a PSA test is done to keep an eye on the prostrate and I would encourage everyone to have this done, my full check up costs about 1100 bts, the PSA alone is 400.

Age, family history & race: You have no control over these. (Yawn)

 

The 2 things you can control - ie greatly improve - are diet and lifestyle (ie exercise). As in just about every other 'Western' health issue - diabetes & dementia come to mind - sugar (in all its forms) is your enemy.

 

And it's never too late. Your decisions, your consequences.

suggest that everyone read the best sellers by DR. William Li, a Harvard trained doctor, researcher and other titles who has been doing research on foods and diets in relation to diseases that plague all of mankind.  Older men are recommended to eat a diet heavy in Tomatoes and other "red"  or "pink"  fruits, especially pomegranates juice and or seeds to help prevent prostate problems and to help with the pharma treatments.  Recent findings by researchers in diets and particular foods are turning out to be amazing even to the researchers in the prevention and treatment of diseases including prostate problems including cancer.  Just a suggestion, as I am no expert in any case medical or pharma.  My father died of prostate cancer, telling me that the treatment was worse than the disease and if it came back in his case, he would die before going through the treatment again.  I myself have read Dr. Li's books, many findiings are fairly recent but I do notice now that other medical newsletters are picking up the same suggestions for older males (or for different diseases for women) diets heavy in "red" fruits like mentioned above.  Best of luck and good health.

About three years ago I was diagnosed with Stage 4 throat cancer... The doctor told me "Stage 4 cancer means that you likely won't make it through the treatment process. You have about a 5% chance of living...."

 

And here I am three years later!!

 

About a year after I was cancer free the doctor then said, "I don't know what it is you did to help your treatment, but whatever it was I commend you."

 

You can go to my YT channel (Seishindo) and I have four or five videos called something like "My journey with cancer" 

 

What I did was use a lot of what I learned as a professional Aikido teacher for 20 years in Japan. Various techniques to make your energetic footprint larger than the cancer. 

 

I can be of service to anyone that has been diagnosed with cancer....

 

And just to be clear- I am NOT saying I have a foolproof method for becoming cancer free. But I do have a method that can definitely help, and it is a method that allows you to get passed the limitations that the medical community saddle you with.

Just heard about Chris Hoy, UK cyclist, who has been given 2 - 4 years to live after Prostate cancer has spread. They said that in UK you can get a PSA test if you are over 50, he is only 48, but his father and grandfather both had Cancer.

I can get a PSA test done here for Bht 300. and do so every 6 months !

instead of supplement, I have 3 tablespoons of tomato paste with cereal eash morning.  In addition, I also include fruits with lycopene also.  Maybe too much but at least the taste is okay.  Best of health to you

Unfortunately from what I have learned about the medical society is that most doctors only get pharma training instead of any nutritional needs to prevent and sometimes even cure the five major killing diseases.  Usually a combo of the pharma with nutrition is much stronger and effective.  Just saying based on recent research being done on nutrition/diet/foods as medicine.

Although the exact cause of prostate cancer is not know several high ranking doctors have told me that beer consumption and smoking may be a cause.

Lack of vitamin D is also another suspected cause, according to many medical experts which you can easily find on the internet,

My halfpennyworth. I think it is correctly said that more men die with prostate cancer than die from it.

I had an enlarged prostate in about 2014, and was kept under observation. Eventually, because the enlargement is both outwards, as measured at 85ml, and inwards, squeezing the urethra, I had some incontinence. The urologist recommended and carried out a TURP, and the scarpings showed some cancer. PSA was about 2.8. Kept it under observation and PSA rose to over 4. Treatment recommended with options of surgery or radiotherapy. Chose radiotherapy. Had to have a bit of scar tissue from the TURP removed, and also hormone treatment. End result prostate volume down to 25 ml.  Qulaified for more intensive treatment over 20 visits. All went well. PSA has now been between 0.1 and 0.2 for 4 years. Worst part was 12 to 18 months after treatment finished. Lots of stinging, passing blood including clots. Now been clear for about 2 years.

Please guys, get your PSA checked regularly. I still do.

[GammaGlobulin]

IHMO....one should keep these caveats well in mind...

 

 

 

[Presnock]

look at diet and lifestyle for just about any cancer except through your DNA passed between your parents, but those cancers are the minority from the research I have read.  Unfortunately it looks to me like the more developed a country is, the poorer the diet of their citizens.  In the US almost half the people are way tooooooo fat! and got that way eating ultra processed foods, lack of enough fruits and vegetables and little if an exercise regularly.  I also heard a doctor and researcher say that during medical training that they only received 14 hours of nutritional training but tons of pharma treatments - food has been used to treat many illnesses for millenia while pharmas have only been at it for a little over a hundred years.  Yet there are very few side effects with natural medicines as opposed to the phamas.  MO anyway.

Or are you just redistributing it as if you do? 

Dr. Li's books on diets for prevention of disease and good health are best sellers.  In addition to everything of fact in the books are the detailed studies resulting in the findings.  If you want to know about all of this, the books are available at the Kinokuniya bookstore.  Whether you believe the studies or not is entirely up to you.  But, as for me I am OLD, my faither died of prostate cancer, my mother died from strokes duirng Alzheimers, so yeah I am  interested in any studies on these and other diseases.  I get health information daily in newsletters put out by health organzaions  and media and I have recently noted many are citing the same information on the different health issues.  Fortunately I learned earlier in my life about the benefits of regular exercise and avoiding bad diets so  have  led a healthy life (now 78 years old) still do my 6 km (though not running after 65) walk at a quick pace, lift weights several times a week, do core exercises (60 Minutes) on the days that I don't  lift.  I eat healthy Iaw these diet books but many  of the suggestions I was eating prior to reading about the different foods and health issues.  One's eating habits have been modified as supposed our country becomes more developed.  That was a falsehood too as the big pharmas and big food companies switched from natural foods to artificial flavorings and colors that are not so healthy for us and a perfect example if you want to know about it is "SEED  OILS" developed for machines - then switched to foodstuffs and just look at the health issues this has  caused.  I first became aware of just how this can happen.  I was living in Spain  in the late 70's early 80's.  There was an outbreak of many local citizens and eventually the government sent samples of all the victims to the US because their labs didn't have the expertise  to find out the cause of their deaths.  Turned out that a local OLIVE oil company that produced the lowest grade for machine oil, just repackaged the oil as cooking oil.  The govt  of course warned the public and ordered that all on the shelves in stores be destroyed.  Many people complained as it was the cheapest cooking oil available!  Go figure.   If you google  the history of seed oils you can learn for yourself what you should or should not use for consumption of the same can do to you. But, I am not  any kind of expert on foods and health - just can base my opinion on my own health and what I believe from these documented studies.  Many foods are being found only very recently to be very healthy for us and in many cases can enhance the pharmas that doctors will use and the natural foods have no side effects.  Plus most taste very good too.  Good health to all we deserve it!

What most men also dont know, is that dairy products, specially Cheese and milk that is 0-fat or low fat, are really bad choice for men. And worse for those with an already enlarged prostate. Normal dairy like Cheese (full fat) are high in saturated fats and hormones that can cause inflammation and increase prostate enlargement. They can also have some good fats, like Omega3, but this depends if the cow was grass fed or not. Mostly in Thailand are fed 99% pineapple and corn.

Cow milk and it's products carry a lot of enlargement hormones, not also bad for women, it is also for men.

Just look at the statistics of countries with the highest prostate cancer, and they way they consume dairy products below.

 

Quote

Countries with high per capita dairy consumption have higher rates of prostate cancer than countries with low dairy consumption.

 

I used Claude AI to generate this data, the prompt I used is I post at the end of the post.

Thailand does have a high rate, surprising! I would blame the removal of fat from everything. 90% of all dairy are now is 0-fat, absolutely disgusting!

 

France rate is crazy: 0.1%  (99 out of 100,000 men)

ok, so avoid all that nonsense and go low fat which i do with high carb, works for me. I'm not a fatty giving nutrition advice

[bkk6060]

Not sure why more do not talk about ejaculation as a possible solution or at least, delay on this.

 

 

A study from Harvard University found that men who ejaculated 21 or more times a month enjoyed a 31% lower risk of prostate cancer compared with men who reported four to seven ejaculations per month across their lifetimes.

Similar findings have come from Australia where prostate cancer is 36% less likely to be diagnosed before the age of 70 in men who averaged about five to seven ejaculations a week compared with men who ejaculated less than two to three times a week.

 

Have sex, masturbate, do whatever it takes to ejaculate as much as possible.

Good for you mate! I enjoy a high fat, high protein and low card diet, not KETO, even thou I had it for a year, no more of that keto madness.

 

I'm never putting Low Fat TRASH food in my mount, and my carbs comes from rice and food that aren't processed food.

 

If nature didn't make it, I ain't eating that pile of 💩.
