Prostate Cancer Signs and Symptoms (Urinary, Sexual & Metastatic Symptoms)

[@jjmedicine]

I hope you all enjoy this lesson. Please Note: When I mention that African countries have lower rates of Prostate Cancer, I should have said specifically "Northern African" countries, as these are the countries that have lower rates of Prostate Cancer.

[@sotecluxan4221]

Why trusting those statistics?

[@EmmanuelBediako-yg8ne]

Not true , entire continent has lower rate ,natural food , physical labor and active lifestyles is plus to the males on the continent

[@torbjornbernhardson3634]

I was wundering as african americans has a higher risk than european.

[@EmmanuelBediako-yg8ne]

@@torbjornbernhardson3634 Their unhealthy lifestyles, too much drinking, smoking bad eating habits

Clear, informative and descriptive information. Presented like a true professional/professor. Thank you.

My cancer was spotted early, I was having regular PSA checks from 2014 up until 2019 when I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer, I had my prostate removed in Dec 2021. I had a few issues after the procedure, and had to have a catheter for 10wks, as a result I am now Incontinent, but at least I can be confident I no longer have the Cancer in my body. I would recommend that if your male and have a few issues with your waterworks, ask your doctor for a PSA check, it’s basically a simple blood test, and it can indicate if there’s a possible problem!!

Thank you very much...informative for a 75 year old

If I might add some nuance to this discussion: prostate cancer "is the the most common cancer in males" (at 2:20) *in Western nations* but is second to lung cancer in most of the world. The incidence of PC in Yemen and Bhutan is 3 per 100,000 men, but *100 per 100,000 men* in Norway and Sweden. That's a tremendous disparity. Although there is some genetic influence involved, it is generally recognized that lifestyle factors are likely the main problem. Now we need to determine what those lifestyle risks are.

[@andy-i1p]

very straight forward and easy to understand.

[@rogeranderson1351]

No mention of PSA levels

[@dianaselenesoriano6622]

My PSA level 13

[@gregorykiernan7849]

​@@dianaselenesoriano6622My PSA was 38... and climb to 43 two weeks later.

[@KevinMaxwell-o3t]

Generally, at least here in Canada, we draw the line at a PSA of 4.50. In the U.S. you are flagged at 4.00. That's for men over 60. For younger men the line is drawn at 2.50.

[@TomHowlett-s3z]

I am a 66 year old male my prostate cancer wasn't spotted until August of this year I had appointment at Cumberland infirmary at Carlisle I went in to a doctor it was about some pain I was having but not to be told sorry you have prostate cancer I put my head down for a little and then my daughter said to the doctor what span life he looked at me and said you are going to answer this question what do you think so I said from my belly upwards I feel good I can still do things with my hands on apart from that I good looks back at my daughter and says your dad as answered your question I have been told you will have injections for the rest of your life one good thing tom it is not spreading it around your pelvis for now your levels are up we what them down now we are in November I have checked back at my doctor's to be told good your levels are right down. 😅

Very interesting ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤MC B.

[@Wayner71]

Don't all older people have increased frequency of urination?

[@vrado441]

yes

[@gregorykiernan7849]

Especially where Diabetes is present.

[@KevinMaxwell-o3t]

No. Only men with enlarged prostates (BPH). In both men and women, hypertension (high blood pressure) can often cause nocturia (needing to pee at night).

thanks for sharing

Thanks for sharing

[@alainrochon4644]

PSA test should be done when older40 or 50 latest

[@TomHowlett-s3z]

it's Mr howlett here we were talking about prostate cancer I have just found out because my belly is a kind of fat I have never been fat but it is the injections I am having to make me fat so I can't get away from that

[@MsingatiNyeke]

How to prevent it

[@andrewrivera4029]

Stop eating carbs, junk food, highly processed carbs and seed oil.

[@josephn.s5115]

Taking vitamin E tablets every day create cancer at prostrate.?

[@cjsamtab7]

Stress, cortisol is chief cause of all cancers.

[@andrewrivera4029]

Due to inflammation chiefly from diet.

[@jeffreyhare5695]

Retired Army and then 20 years PICU Resp. Therapist. I can't remember which Oncologist it was, but what he said made perfect sense. Said EVERYONE has cancer in their body; the body constantly fights up to keep what is called a Homeostatic environment. something triggers it to go hog wild sometimes, be it environmental or genetics. I honestly believe the research into forever chemicals has a huge role in this. Your body cannot rid itself of these toxins.

[@Pika-Chu64]

Ok 👍

Retaining semen leads prostate cancer?

[@kathleenking47]

Also, possible vitamin D3 deficiency? I'm black, and my dad died from prostate cancer complications at 79 Blacks tend to be lower with it And need to take extra

[@Anne_Onymous]

"Retaining"? lol

[@Anne_Onymous]

​@kathleenking47 Probably just one of the many contributing factors. My anatomy teacher called me "racist" and stopped the class to pull me outside for a lecture when I mentioned that black people's melanin makes them produce less D. So it's nice to hear someone else say it lol

[@ragna8732]

It does not that is a myth

[@Lord_Don]

@@kathleenking47 me too and my father almost had it. He got off with medicine. His brother my uncle had it and it turned to bone cancer, claimed his life. My urine stream is a bit low and I’m 44yo. I believe it’s time to get touched and tested 😮‍💨😔😞

[@jamalbee596]

I’m confused. Africans usually don’t get it but, African Americans have the highest of getting it. Why is this? Also great channel!!!

[@andrewrivera4029]

The US food supply is poisoned with corn oil, highly processed carbohydrates, sugar and artificial chemicals that spike insulin causing inflammation.

[@jeffreyhare5695]

IDK if this has any bearing but got turned on to Soursop Graviola which I buy @ Amazon. A Black guy told me about it @ the casino; he had his removed. It is an African herb. I take one pill morning and one @ night. PSA, for what that is worth dropped from 7.36 to 4.89. My Urologist will do another biopsy Jul 2025; hope I stay @ stage one where nothing is done. So I would think Africans regularly eat this???

[@KevinMaxwell-o3t]

That's because diet and other lifestyle factors are possibly the main culprits.

[@paulrasmussen3858]

THE WORD IS TOILET..TOILET TOILET not washroom.Why are you so afraid to say it?You don't piss in the sink!

[@stevenmoore3480]

the toilet is not a room is it, do you only go to the bathroom to piss and never wash? why not call it the pissroom then?

[@dad7720]

Well said!

[@kendiamond8722]

Pissoff 😮

[@cdkmonkey2699]
