Prostate Symptoms
Prostate cancer is life threatening when nothing is done either to prevent it or treat it. It takes time for it to develop and mature in your body. It might have started developing when you were thirty but because you didn’t know the symptoms you only discover it when you are 50 plus in it’s advanced stage. Treatment is more effective when the cancer is detected in its early stages. After all, the early bird always catches the worm. Here are some of the symptoms associated with prostate cancer.
You may experience difficulty when urinating. That is to say you might suffer some pain and discomfort. And you also have the urgent need to urinate from time to time despite the amount of liquid you would have drunk. The slow flow of urine and difficulty in stopping when you are in the bathroom is also a sign
When you find yourself waking up a lot in the middle of the night to urinate it is certainly not normal with the exception of the season winter, as the body loses a lot of water as a means to keeping you warm. But to be on the safe side check with your doctor to make sure that it’s normal. Also if you experience trouble when starting to urinate is a cause for concern and you must not ignore it.
Notice any blood in the urine? That is another symptom of prostate cancer. Your urine will darken from the normal yellow color to a more reddish color because of the blood.
Your sex urge begins to decline considerably. So if you are experiencing this problem stop looking for the answers in the wrong places and go in for check up.
Pain when ejaculating is another sign that you may be diagnosed with prostate cancer. Visit your doctor as soon as possible and stop stalling.
You will also experience pain in the hips, pelvis and back. It also means that the cancer is now in its advanced stages and has spread to the specified areas of your body.
In addition to the symptoms I have mentioned above, you may also have reduced ability to get an erection. This also happens when you have too much on your mind but if you know you are happy and stress free then something is seriously wrong.
If you experience any of the above then you should go and visit your doctor immediately. It may be a false alarm but it’s alright to know that you are safe. Remember that prostate cancer can happen to anyone so don’t do the mistake of ignoring these signs.
It may just save your life from prostate cancer.
Visit your doctor as often as you can for examination. Symptoms may start to show much later as compared to when the cancer had started to grow.
A word of advice is that you shouldn’t wait for these symptoms to start showing so that you can do something about it.
You know prostate cancer is real so take preventive measures against the cancer.
