Symptoms of prostate cancer may include a thinning urine stream

The chances of men dying from prostate cancer are very high, mainly because people do not recognize the symptoms of prostate cancer. In fact, symptoms of prostate cancer may include a thinning urine flow. Of course, the symptoms of prostate cancer are more than just this. Let the experts explain the specific content to you.

Since the symptoms of prostate cancer mostly occur in the posterior lobe, there are no symptoms in the early stage. Even if there is discomfort, it is not enough to attract the patient's attention, which makes early diagnosis difficult. Once obvious symptoms appear clinically, it is often in the late stage of the disease and the prognosis is poor. It can be seen that early detection of symptoms of prostate cancer is very important. Especially for patients with prostatitis and prostatic hypertrophy, who have repeated attacks and are not cured, they should pay close attention to changes in their condition to prevent cancer.

In the early stages, prostate cancer often presents with symptoms such as frequent urination, increased nocturia, difficulty urinating, thinner urine stream, prolonged urination, painful urination, and urine retention, which are the same as those of prostate hyperplasia. Therefore, it is difficult to diagnose prostate cancer based on these symptoms, and diagnosis mainly relies on digital rectal examination.

Rectal examination is extremely important in the diagnosis of prostate cancer symptoms, with an accuracy rate of 50%-70%. Many scholars advocate that regular rectal examinations should be performed on middle-aged and older men in areas with a high incidence of prostate cancer, which will give many patients the opportunity to receive early diagnosis and radical cure.

How to diagnose the symptoms of prostate cancer? If necessary, doctors can perform perineal or rectal puncture to obtain biopsy tissue, and the correct diagnosis rate can reach 70%-80%. They can also massage the prostate through the rectum and collect prostate fluid for examination, and the positive rate can reach more than 90%. Most cases can be diagnosed in this way.

The above is the explanation given by experts on the symptoms of prostate cancer. I hope it can help you answer your questions.
