Love you, Abe. Never seems to amaze me at how much you prepare for videos like this in such little timing due to your career. I highly appreciate the information.
I had been having the sypmtons you mentioned for the last 6 months. Thought it was due to kidney stone etc. anyhow I finally decided to visit my GP and he confirmed swelling to one side of prostate after DRE. He did an urgent 14 day referral but hospital wanted a PSA before booking a MRI scan. I had my blood test taken last week but no news from the hospital. Chased them today and was told that test results are with the consultant (don't know who he is at this moment in time). They have now booked a date for an MRI scan which is next week. I also asked if i could know the PSA level but was told no. I am praying that MRI scan is as positive as it can be i.e. it's early stage and can be treated successfully.
Great video and explanation and you are wholeheartedly agree, prostrate cancer is normally associated with older men but I was 45 when I was diagnosed. Unlike most videos on looking for signs of prostrate cancer I had no signs symptoms at all. It was finding out I had the braca 2 hereditary cancer gene that set the wheels in motion for the next few years.Retrospectively I had a wet patch in my underwear, about the size of a penny, after passing urine, and this was the only clue. So looking for any other symptoms wouldn’t have helped. I feel like yourself more awareness amongst the younger generations is important, say 40 above to get checked. Most men still think getting checked will involve intrusive embarrassing procedures to discover prostrate cancer, but a simple blood test is all what is needed. A PSA test will show a result and then from there if you are shown to have cancer cells your journey will start. I feel there should be standard screening for prostrate cancer at the age of 40 onwards, incorporation in your yearly health check. Just like women have a cervical or breast screening program men should have a prostate cancer test. I hope younger men discover your prostrate explanation although I tend to find guys won’t search for information about prostrate cancer until they think they have it so we all need to discuss this more openly across the generations to make sure the messages are passed along. Thank you again for making your video 👏
Anyway I enjoy how you use physical props in the videos like how the prostate wraps around the urethra. Helps with understanding. Similar to the bottle and acid reflux.
Hi. I watched your video with some degree of concern if I'm honest. When you were describing the symptoms of Prostate Cancer, I realised I had 8 of the symptoms. However, at the moment (in fact for the past 2 and a half years, I've had bladder stones, so this may be what is causing my problems) I have been on the 'waiting list' to have these bladder stones treated, and the long and short of it is, I'm STILL waiting. I'm now in agony. On top of all this, I have Spina Bifida, and catheterize intermittently. This is very painful to do. I have recently had some blood tests done, and apparently there is no sign of cancer, no problems with my kidneys, liver or anything else for that matter. But the pain I'm in at the moment is unmanageable. I don't seem to be able to get an appointment to see my GP for love nor money!
Dear Abraham, Please make a video on healthy sleep cycle, how to wake up energetic and on time. I sometimes sleep upto 10 hours, how to reduce that. Reminder 9
I have all of these symptoms. I also have had an enlarged prostate for about 24 years now. My GP thinks the PSA test is the only thing that will tell if I have prostate cancer. He seems to be gaslighting me and doesn't see the need for a visit to the urologist. I'm going to schedule it anyway. Is there a possibility of the psa not detecting a cancer when, in fact, there very well could be?
I'm 28 and have every one of these symptoms except for weight loss lmao. Shoot .. I'm scared of the exam lol. But it's worth living for ten more years (hopefully more)
4.0 and below are good numbers. Once you get past four be on the lookout. Had prostate removal surgery in August due to cancer. Gentleman take care of yourselves.
Gooday woodie Thanks mate ya never can tell these days most of us guys avoid the doctor like the plague Till something gets worse Had the diget exam thank christ He had little fingers Mine was only 8 or 9 but still classed as abnormal it's scary shit I wish you all the best hang around mate us Aussies need you poms to pick on Seas my favourite place to
Can masturbation lead to prostate cancer? I am having difficulty in peeing... and i can feel an enlarged prostate while erection just under it. I don't have any symptoms such as blood in urine or either semen too. What shall i do sir? Please reply. I would be grateful.
I am 65 yrs old and have just been diagnosed with prostrate cancer today.... it`s all scary stuff but it`s something you can not ignore . Alas my late father had prostrate cane and bone cancer as a result died of it, so it runs in my family. The symptoms are very mild to start you hardly notice them to the point i ticked all the boxes . I am still a bit shell shocked after another one of those very frank patient doctor talks and by the looks of it , it will have to be removed surgically .
@@SeriousSchitt peeing all the time is a pointer for want of a better word. Then there is the stinging sensation, Getting up several times a night is the normal for me. Then there is the flow rate it just comes out at it's own speed, then when you've think you're finished and put yourself always only to find your haven't...which can be very embarrassing. I've got the hang out now and wear small pads with a few spare ones in my back pocket. Initially when I asked the GP i was suffering from an enlarged prostate only later on it showed up in the blood tests ( PSA levels) Then the prodding and poking starts and numerous tests as they determine what to do. It can also affect you in bed....when you try to get intimate...in my case impotence. Don't get too alarmed If you have any concerns talk to your GP the soonest the better as they can catch it while it's still small.

In fact, masturbating regularly helps... promotes prostate health.
No sperm on ejeculation is this a symtom
