Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in males. The prostate is a small walnut-shaped gland that secretes seminal fluid in males and helps nourish and transport sperm. Several factors can cause prostate cancer, and it may develop slowly and be localized.
Others are aggressive and can spread quickly. Symptoms include trouble urinating, blood in urine and semen, bone pain, recurrent UTIs, development of urinary stones, decreased force of urine, and erectile dysfunction. Consulting a urologist can help detect prostate cancer. A PSA test is performed at Delhi Urology Hospital to determine whether the tumor is normal (less than 4mg) or high.
If the prostate is hard/ nodular and the PSA test is positive, then a trans-rectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy is done to confirm the diagnosis of the tumor. In the early stage, like 1 and 2 of prostate cancer, it is treated with the help of radical prostatectomy. In later stages, prostate cancer is treated with the use of radiation, hormone therapy, and chemotherapy.
