Answer 2

Getting up more than twice during the night to go to the bathroom, difficulty emptying the bladder, reduced force of the stream, difficulty starting the stream.
However, the same things happen with benign prostate hypertrophy.
During your annual physical, the doc will do a check of the prostate. If he feels any bumps or lumps, you will be sent for a biopsy.
The only way to tell for certain is to have the PSA (prostate specific antigen) level checked. If it is high, biopsies will be done.
Any infection or inflammation of the prostate will raise the PSA, as will a recent ejaculation.
It is recommended to have a PSA drawn yearly if you are over age fifity, but prostate cancer has been found in younger men.
The prostate keeps growing throughout life, and as it grows, the PSA becomes slightly higher. A higher PSA in a seventy or eighty year old man does not necessarily mean that he has prostate cancer.

Answer 3

Unfortunately, there are really none specifically. That is why the best idea is to have regular PSA tests by your doctor. It's just a simple blood test but take it from me it's very important to have done, even if you don't suspect you might have it. If others in your family have had it or breast cancer, it's especially important to have the test and it's hereditary

Answer 4

Prostate cancer usually doesn't cause symptoms in its early stages. Between 60% and 70% of men who are older than 80 who have prostate cancer have no symptoms. 2

When there are symptoms, they may include:

* Having difficulty starting your urine stream. This is called hesitancy.
* Having a weaker than normal urine stream.
* Being unable to urinate at all.
* Having to urinate often.
* Feeling that your bladder is not emptying completely when you urinate.
* Having to get up at night to urinate. This is called nocturia.
* Having pain or a burning feeling when you urinate. This is called dysuria.
* Having blood in your urine. This is called hematuria.
* Having blood in your semen. This is called hematospermia.
* Having a deep pain in your lower back, abdomen, hip, or pelvis.

Answer 5

My grandfather hardly had any symptoms, and didn't know he had it until a doctor found it. He got radiation treatment and survived.
Check with a doctor at least once a year. And many people survive it.
Good luck!

Answer 6

I had it, didn't know it. I was feeling just great at the time and it was very scary to learn I had the big "C". I had no symptoms at the time and I was 54 when it was found.
