Dear Reader,
With age, most men experience some type of prostate problem – enlargement, inflammation or cancer. Changes that occur in the prostate gland are likely the result of many factors, including genetics, environment and physical health, in addition to age. Although prostate disorders are a common problem for many men, that doesn’t mean they’re inevitable.
Mayo Clinic on Prostate Health, 3rd Edition is an essential resource for every man. This easy-to-read, comprehensive guide explains how to maintain better prostate health, and how to evaluate treatment options when disease occurs.
Topics in this book include: - The debate over PSA testing
- Advances in imaging technology for the prostate
- Full range of therapies for prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer
- Managing treatment side effects, including incontinence and sexual dysfunction
The goal of Mayo Clinic on Prostate Health is to educate you on the full spectrum of topics related to prostate health. The more you know about prostate health, the greater your chances of identifying problems early, making good decisions about treatment and maintaining a high quality of life. |
