What Are the Early Symptoms of Prostate Cancer, and How Can It Be Prevented? - #15196
A close family friend was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer, and it made me realize how little I know about this condition. From what I understand, prostate cancer mostly affects older men, but does that mean younger men don’t need to worry about it? What are the early symptoms of prostate cancer? Does it cause noticeable pain or discomfort, or is it usually silent until it reaches a later stage? I read that symptoms can include frequent urination, weak urine flow, and pelvic pain—do these always indicate cancer, or can they be caused by other conditions like BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia)? Are there any lifestyle changes or dietary habits that help reduce the risk of prostate cancer? I’ve read that green tea, flaxseeds, and tomatoes are good for prostate health—do they actually help? Does Ayurveda offer any herbs or remedies that help support prostate health and prevent issues like prostate enlargement? If anyone has experience with prostate health, I’d love to hear what preventive measures you take. Also, how often should men get prostate screenings, and at what age should they start?
