These 3 factors can actually induce prostate cancer

Among tumor diseases, prostate cancer is relatively common and will have a certain impact on the patient's body and life. Do you know what are the causes of prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer is a type of male disease, and many men are suffering from it. The known causes are related to age and bacterial infection. Some patients develop the disease because they inherit a susceptible gene, which stimulates the growth of cancer cells in the body, and then prostate cancer occurs.

What are the factors that induce prostate cancer?

1. Causes of infection:

Human beings are in a chronic bacterial or viral infection environment for a long time, which greatly increases the chance of developing prostate cancer. Older patients are often also a high-risk group for this disease, so older people should pay attention to the prevention of this disease to avoid affecting their health.

2. Genetic reasons:

If a blood relative has had prostate cancer, the next generation or relatives are more likely to have prostate cancer than normal people. In other words, about 9% of patients have this disease because someone in their family has it. If your daily diet contains a lot of saturated fatty acid foods, you should be alert. Therefore, we remind everyone to reduce saturated fatty acid foods as much as possible in your diet, because saturated fatty acids are one of the causes of prostate cancer.

3. Hormonal reasons:

In fact, a large number of patients have male hormone receptors on the surface of prostate cancer cells. Once the male hormone stimulation is lost, the cancer cells will gradually shrink and degenerate. People who secrete too much male hormone will increase the chance of developing prostate cancer. In life, male friends should raise their awareness of disease prevention and stay away from diseases for the health of themselves and their families.

What are the symptoms of prostate cancer?

1. Obstruction symptoms

Symptoms of prostate cancer may include difficulty urinating, urinary retention, pain, blood in the urine, or urinary incontinence.

2. Local infiltrative symptoms

The bladder-rectum space is often the first to be affected. This space includes organ structures such as the prostate, seminal vesicles, vas deferens, and the lower end of the ureter. If the tumor invades and compresses the vas deferens, it will cause low back pain and testicular pain in the patient. Some patients also complain of pain during ejaculation.

3. Other metastatic symptoms

Prostate cancer is prone to bone metastasis. There may be no obvious symptoms of prostate cancer at the beginning. Sometimes prostate cancer is not discovered until medical treatment due to nerve compression or pathological fracture caused by bone metastasis.
