Early Detection Reduces Prostate Cancer Risk
The prostate is a gland of the male reproductive system. Normally, the prostate is quite small. It is nearly the same size and shape as a chestnut.Aging and the prostate
As a man gets older, his prostate may increase in size. This condition is called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). By age 70, more than 40 per cent of men will have enlargement of the prostate. An increase in the size of the prostate and a change in urine flow do not necessarily mean you have cancer; there may have some other underlying causes. However, a man can have both BPH and prostate cancer. Early prostate cancer usually does not cause any symptoms. However, as the tumor grows, it may spread from the prostate to surrounding areas. The value of early detection
Early detection of prostate cancer is very much beneficial. People can live longer after diagnosis. So old men should get tested for prostate cancer to get optimum benefit.
