The normal volume of the prostate is 40mmx30mmx20mm, and the current measured value is 45mmx35mmx33mm, which is obviously larger than the normal prostate volume, which is abnormal and commonly seen in diseases such as prostate hyperplasia and prostate tumor.
1. Prostatic hyperplasia: mostly related to the increasing age and functioning testicles, the number of glandular cells of the patient’s prostate gland increases, which in turn causes the volume to become larger, which can cause pressure on the urethra, and then lead to the patient’s symptoms such as frequent urination, urinary urgency, dysuria, and waiting for urination.
2. Prostate tumors: including benign and malignant tumors of the prostate, the proliferation of tumor cells can lead to the enlargement of the prostate, especially prostate cancer.
When patients measure the increase in the size of prostate, they need to further improve the prostate specific antigen (PSA), imaging, prostate puncture biopsy and other tests in order to clarify the cause of the disease.
