Unnecessary diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer | UroChannel

As someone who had a radical prostatectomy at the age of 54 after a biopsy found a T2A tumour, these are the words I remember seeing in my Urologists waiting room;

“There are many ways to treat problems with the Prostate, doing nothing isn’t one of them”.

Mine was left alone and I’m now 93 and no problems

Excellent information, quite comprehensive in a relatively short video.

I think a lot of those urinary symptoms you've highlighted are also related to BPH which is very common in men over 50 as well, I had a psa of 2.6 at 50 which was elevated, I had a random plus targeted 16 core biopsy taken which all came back benign, I was told I've an enlarged prostate as my urologist said a normal prostate size is 20cc but mine was measured at 32cc, I think it's just important to highlight that BPH is also very common and is often the case for raised psa, the only way you find out though is to see a urologist and I'm glad you mentioned the growth of the prostate, thank you for the information supplied on your videos.

I have two younger brothers that had prostatectomy in their 40s. I believe they were over diagnosed. I get a PSA every 6-8 months. Dr and I watching for change over time. So far so good.

Very important video, thank you for this info! I will be talking with my brother and father about this

Very nice

Good information as usual.

Once over 45 all men should be checked

Great infos tnx Doc Setafan very very much for doing this.

Do u have an idea why latley there seems to be an influx of testicular cancer in particularly young football players as seen in the Bundesliga?
My guess would be the percentage is about the same as in the rest of the population but the players just get checked more frequently and the results have been publicized so it just seems to be disproportionate. I might be completely wrong here so please feel free to correct me.
Best regards,
Hope everyone going through it completely recovers asap.

Clear, thorough, and science based information as always. Thanks again for your excellent videos.

Thank you for your very informative clips. I look forward to them.
