What is prostate cancer??
Prostate cancer is cancer of the small walnut-shaped gland in men that produces seminal fluid, the fluid that nourishes and transports sperm.





For many men a diagnosis of prostate cancer can be frightening, not only because of the threat to their lives, but because of the threat to their sexuality. In fact, the possible consequences of treatment for prostate cancer — which include bladder control problems and erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence — can be a great concern for some men.





If prostate cancer is detected early — when it's still confined to the prostate gland — you have a better chance of successful treatment with minimal or short-term side effects. Successful treatment of cancer that has spread beyond the prostate gland is more difficult. But treatments exist that can help control prostate cancer.





Cancer is a group of abnormal cells that grow more rapidly than normal cells and that refuse to die. Cancer cells also have the ability to invade and destroy normal tissues, either by growing directly into surrounding structures or after traveling to another part of your body through your bloodstream or lymph system. Microscopic cancer cells develop into small clusters that continue to grow, becoming more densely packed and hard.





The prostate gland is the small, walnut-shaped gland that surrounds the bottom portion ("neck") of a male's bladder and about the first inch of the urinary tube (urethra), the channel that drains urine from the bladder. It's located behind the pubic bone and in front of the rectum. The prostate's primary function is to produce seminal fluid, the fluid that nourishes and transports sperm.





Prostate cancer usually grows slowly and initially remains confined to the prostate gland, where it may not cause serious harm. But if left untreated, prostate cancer can begin to invade tissues and cause damage, and it may spread to others areas of your body where it can cause significant harm. Some forms of prostate cancer are aggressive and can spread quickly to other parts of your body.





What causes prostate cancer and why some types behave differently are unknown. Research suggests that a combination of factors may play a role, including heredity, ethnicity, hormones, diet and the environment.





You can get more details from several web sites. Now you can get authentic informations from the following website -
Reply:Your prostate is found in the rectum. Men 25+ should have an exam once a year.
Reply:your prostate is not in your rectum, but is felt through the rectal wall it is a gland shaped like a donut that surrounds the urethra of a male.sometimes when men age they will have problems voiding due to the prostate enlarging and squeezing the urethra. in this case the prostate can either be removed or reduced with surgery.there are also meds that will help reduce the size of an enlarged prostate
Reply:Only men can get prostate cancer. The prostate is a small gland connected to the male urinary tract. If you are a male, there is a simple blood test to determine if you are at high risk for prostate cancer. If you have a high PSA level further tests are necessary.





If caught early this cancer is very treatable ... with good outcomes.





If you are a male with any of those symptoms listed on that site ... see your doctor!!! NOW
Reply:Prostate cancer is cancer of the gland that is located on both sides of the urethra tube. You should have a blood test called A PSA. If high, you need to have a biopsy done. If you do have cancer, it is a slow growing cancer. I had my prostate removed by a very good Urologist, and all of the cancer was removed. I am cancer free. I get a PSA test every 6 months to insure that my cancer has not metathesised.
