This condition is very common in males. Prostate cancer occurs in the prostate gland (bladder). Prostate cancer can be treated with radiotherapy, chemotherapy, brachytherapy, and hormone therapy, which are highly recommended. This disease is cured, and most people are treated without surgical treatment. Sometimes, there is no need for medication. The common types of prostate cancer are sarcomas and neuroendocrine tumours. The growth rate of prostate cancer is very slow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_81 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/blogs\/prostate-cancer\/#What_is_the_Prostate\" >What is the Prostate?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/blogs\/prostate-cancer\/#What_is_Prostate_Disease\" >What is Prostate Disease?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/blogs\/prostate-cancer\/#Types_of_Prostate_Disease_are\" >Types of Prostate Disease are:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/blogs\/prostate-cancer\/#Symptoms_of_Prostate_Conditions\" >Symptoms of Prostate Conditions:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/blogs\/prostate-cancer\/#What_are_the_Risk_Factors_and_Causes_of_Prostate_Cancer\" >What are the Risk Factors and Causes of Prostate Cancer?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/blogs\/prostate-cancer\/#How_to_Diagnose_and_Test_for_Prostate_Cancer\" >How to Diagnose and Test for Prostate Cancer?<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/blogs\/prostate-cancer\/#Prostate-Specific-Antigen_PSA_Blood_Test\" >Prostate-Specific-Antigen PSA Blood Test<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/blogs\/prostate-cancer\/#1_Digital_Rectal_Exam_DRE\" >1.

The prostate is about the size of a walnut. It is just present under the bladder. Or in front of the rectum. The nearby part of the urethra. This urethra produced a seminal liquid. That helps to sustain and transport the sperm. The prostate&#8217;s main function is related to sexual activity. When a male becomes old, the prostate becomes hard and may show any complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Prostate_Disease\"><\/span><strong>What is Prostate Disease?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Prostate disease is very common in males who are over 50 years old. There is no age at which this disease occurs in men. This condition shows the infection, enlargement of the prostate and prostate cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_Prostate_Disease_are\"><\/span><strong>Types of Prostate Disease are:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) <\/strong>(Size enlargement)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Prostatitis<\/strong> (Inflammation\/Infection)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Prostate <\/strong>(Cancer)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>So, given diseases have the same symptoms, but their causes are different.

The prostate cancer risk increases with the passage of time and as you get older. Normally, it can happen in the 60s-70s<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Race and Ethnicity: <\/strong>If your grandparents and ancestry are from South Africa and America. The risks of prostate cancer increase.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Previous Family History and DNA of Prostate Cancer:<\/strong> If a person has a family history of prostate cancer. The risk of\u00a0 cancer increases at the age of 50<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Genetically, <\/strong>Prostate cancer happens if this issue is genetically present from generation to generation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sexually Transmitted Infections:<\/strong> Prostate cancer is transmitted through sexual activity. But this type of cancer is transmitted rarely during or after sex.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Exposure to Chemicals<\/strong>: Some chemical exposures are causing prostate cancer. A chemical was commonly used in the Vietnam War, and some industrial waste chemicals may increase the risk of prostate cancer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Smoking and Tobacco:<\/strong> This is the other potential factor that may increase the risk of prostate cancer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Diet and Healthy Lifestyle:<\/strong> Take a proper and healthy diet. Processed food and animal fats may increase the risk of prostate cancer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Diagnose_and_Test_for_Prostate_Cancer\"><\/span><strong>How to Diagnose and Test for Prostate Cancer?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Studies recommended that infected patients talk with their health care provider about the benefits and risks of screening and testing for prostate cancer. Testing and diagnostic methods are necessary when cancer requires more detail. Some tests are given below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prostate-Specific-Antigen_PSA_Blood_Test\"><\/span><strong>Prostate-Specific-Antigen PSA Blood Test<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This test helps to measure the protein in your blood. Only the prostate and prostate cancer make up the prostate cancer test. Prostate tests are usually shared in ng\/mL. This is used in the treatment of cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Digital_Rectal_Exam_DRE\"><\/span><strong>1. Digital Rectal Exam (DRE)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the physical exam used to help your urologist find a better sense of your prostate health. In this treatment, the urologist wears hand gloves and checks the prostate for lumps, hardness and enlargement of the prostate shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Prostatic_MRI_Method\"><\/span><strong>2. Prostatic MRI Method<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A biopsy is used to create detailed imaging of the prostate to diagnose the suspicious and affected area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Prostate_Biopsy\"><\/span><strong>3. Prostate Biopsy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In this method, the doctor removed a small amount of prostate tissue as a sample to examine under the microscope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Initial_Action_Screening\"><\/span><strong>5. Initial Action Screening<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Screening is normally suggested for men over 50. When you see any symptoms, share details with your doctor because prostate cancer is a slow-growing disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Follow-Up\"><\/span><strong>6. Follow-Up<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Both prostate-specific antigen(PSA)&nbsp; and digital rectal exam( DRE) results show any abnormal symptoms. You must go for further tests, like an MRI and a prostate biopsy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_Stages_of_Prostate_Cancer\"><\/span><strong>What are the Stages of Prostate Cancer?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The stages of prostate cancer are mainly summarised into the four main stages that can be given as a TNM system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Early_Stage_Stage1\"><\/span><strong>1. Early Stage (Stage1)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the early stages, the tumour does not expand beyond the prostate. So this stage is also called the early stage of prostate cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Localised_Stage_Stage2\"><\/span><strong>2. Localised Stage (Stage2)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Stage two is also called the localised stage of prostate cancer, in which the cancer has not spread outside the prostate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Advanced-Loclized_Stage_Stage3\"><\/span><strong>3. Advanced-Loclized Stage (Stage3)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The third stage of cancer indicates that the cancerous cells spread outside the prostate and damage the nearby tissues. This is also called advanced-localised cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Metastatic_Stage_Stage4\"><\/span><strong>4. Metastatic Stage (Stage4)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cancer spreads outside the prostate as well as damages the prostate tissues and other parts like the lymph node, bones, liver and lungs. This stage is often called metastatic cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_Treatments_for_Prostate_Cancer\"><\/span><strong>What are the Treatments for Prostate Cancer?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Radical_Prostatectomy\"><\/span><strong>1. Radical Prostatectomy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the surgical process. In which a urologist removed the entire prostate gland, tissues that are located on the sides of the prostate and seminal vesicles to treat localised prostate cancer. The purpose of removing the prostate is to cure prostate cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Radiation_Therapy\"><\/span><strong>2. Radiation Therapy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In this therapy, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dotclinics.pk\/shockwave-therapy\">high-energy rays can destroy the cancer cells<\/a>. This is a very effective treatment to kill the prostate tumour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Brachytherapy\"><\/span><strong>3. Brachytherapy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This treatment is used to place the radioactive seeds inside the patient&#8217;s prostate. It helps to kill the cancerous cells while preserving the surrounding healthy tissues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Hormone_Therapy\"><\/span><strong>4. Hormone Therapy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterone is responsible for prostate cancer growth. In this therapy, the medication blocks testosterone. Some males have had their testicles removed to prevent prostate cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Chemotherapy\"><\/span><strong>5. Chemotherapy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Chemotherapy in prostate cancer is used as a cytotoxic drug which kills cancerous cells. It can also help to improve your quality of life. You may receive chemotherapy alone or with hormone therapy if the cancer has spread beyond your prostate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Immuno_Therapy\"><\/span><strong>6. Immuno Therapy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This therapy helps boost your immune system, which can kill cancer cells. It is also used in 4 stages for recurring cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Focal_Therapy\"><\/span><strong>7. Focal Therapy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the latest method of prostate cancer treatment that can be used to kill the tumours which are present inside the prostate. Your doctor recommended this therapy if cancer is at low risk and has not spread further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_High-Intensity_Focused_Ultrasound_Therapy\"><\/span><strong>8. High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Therapy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of therapy produces the powerful heat that damages the cancerous cells within your prostate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Cryotherapy\"><\/span><strong>9. Cryotherapy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>However this is the newest therapy method. In which cold gases are responsible for freezing the cancerous cells in your prostate and destroying the tumour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Photodynamic_Therapy\"><\/span><strong>10.
