It's not the only way, as PSA levels are also used to measure prostate status.
I think you just prefer the digital rectal examination :)

If You get symptoms of prostate problems, you will wish that somebody had stuck his finger up your **ss earlier and yuo would have been able to treat and stem what can become a real problem. Symptoms are Full bladder, but not being able to empty completely. Leakage when you least expect it. urgency to peewhen not expected . Stop start flow and limited volume. frequent trips to toilet at night. At this point you may be asked to take a PSA test ( a simple blood test ) or you may be asked to undergo an ultrasound with a full bladder, and due to your condition, this can become very stressful and you may become anxious. If there is no cancer , then you may be a victim of BPH and then you will undergo an operation which entails the surgeon putting an instrument down the eye of your penis and then he will be cutting away the area affected. This could leave you sterile, as he cuts the seminal tubes in order to allow enough area for you to urinate properly. You may have to go back, and a rod inserted to remove some scar tissue. You might want to rethink your attitude to someone testing your prostate, that test could save your life, or at least some very embarrassing and uncomfortable procedures. Good Luck with Your Ego .
Regards.

Space vehicles cars and others are man made. Humans are made by God
Ultrasound scanning informs about prostate but finger up a** informs the doctor
1)if prostate is infected(you cry when the doctor presses it)
2)if prostate is benign (it feels smooth and compressible).
3)if it is cancerous(feels hard and immobile)
The doctor has to literally "massage" the prostate to get the secretions of the gland coming through urethra and examining the contents under microscope and culturing the contents are very useful for diagnosis.
Wish you healthy prostate

He sticks his whole hand up there? Ouch! The doctor has several ways of checking the prostate, but the physical exam is one of the best ways. It takes about 5 seconds.
Don't whine. How would you like to be a women with metal objects jammed into your...well...you know and be poked and prodded, as well as being given a rectal exam to check the internal organs. I really don't want to hear it. Just bend over and take it like a man.

because the only way to reach the prostate is through the Anus (about 2 1/2 inches deep)

where exactly do you think the prostate is?
the doc could put his hand up your peehole if you want, but that would be even more uncomfortable
and also, the lady was talking about things going in her OTHER than your penis, and also OTHER than her anus, there's a thing they have called a vagina! (babies come out of there you know) so feel yourself lucky we don't have exams involing stuff being shoved up OUR front bits
judging by your lack of maturity i think the only female you've seen naked lately is the one on your desktop wallpaper

its a finger or two, not a whole hand. also, blood tests can yield health information on your prostate, though its not as effective as the actual prostate exam.

The quickest and cheapest way to initially check is to palpate that gland. Internal exam is the way!

it is one way to determine the size and quality of the prostate; other indicators are PSA levels.

Because it's the only way it can be felt. Get over yourself. We get stuff stuck up us all the time.
