Health Watch: Signs, symptoms, and cures for prostate cancer
SUMMARY: Prostate health is important for men, with one in eight being diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Lifestyle choices such as a healthy diet, staying clean, and avoiding caffeinated products can help maintain prostate health. Genetic factors can also play a role in prostate issues. Regular PSA tests are crucial for early detection of prostate cancer, as symptoms may not appear until it has metastasized. Factors like slow urinary stream, frequent urination, and urgency may indicate an enlarged prostate. New technologies like the euronav, combining MRI and PSA tests, can improve detection accuracy. Attend seminars like the one at Singing River in Gulport for more information.
