When it comes to prostate disease, people often think of prostatitis and prostate enlargement first. The most important thing that you can do is to make sure that you have a good idea of what you are doing. In Europe and the United States, prostate cancer is the most common malignant tumor, and its mortality rate ranks second among all kinds of malignant tumors. The incidence rate in Asian countries is generally lower than that in Western countries, but in recent years the incidence has been increasing significantly. In the 1990s, the incidence of prostate cancer in China quadrupled compared to the 1960s, and in 2003, prostate cancer ranked first among the top 10 malignant tumors of the male genitourinary system and sixth among the top 10 malignant tumors of men. It is predicted that in 10 years, the incidence of prostate cancer will be among the top three malignant tumors in men. The disease has the following characteristics: First, it has a unique natural history, and most patients’ tumors can be latent for a long time, even undetected for life. Secondly, about 97% are adenocarcinoma. Thirdly, the onset of the disease is insidious, and some patients have rapid and extensive metastasis of cancer cells, which are often misdiagnosed as prostate enlargement and prostatitis when corresponding clinical symptoms appear. Fourthly, patients in the middle and late stages of the disease often have bone, lung and liver metastases, and the prognosis is extremely poor. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on this kind of things. The following points should be paid special attention to male friends in general: 1. Middle-aged and older men over 50 years old should preferably have an annual screening for prostate cancer, including serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test and transrectal prostate finger examination. Among them, PSA is very important for the diagnosis of prostate cancer p differential diagnosis p disease monitoring p follow up, etc. Careful rectal examination can detect the hard nodal area of prostate cancer, and together with prostate puncture biopsy, the diagnosis can be confirmed in about 70% of patients. You can also choose transrectal prostate ultrasound, which can clearly show the subtle changes of the prostate gland and can confirm lesions of 5 mm in diameter, and is the preferred method to diagnose prostate cancer. 2. If you have symptoms such as difficulty in urination and pelvic pain, don’t take it for granted that you are suffering from prostatitis or prostate enlargement and buy your own medicine to take. In order to rule out the possibility of prostate cancer, it is best to go to a regular hospital for screening. The actual fact is that you will not be able to get a lot of money. The actual fact is that there are a number of studies that have found that men who drink a lot of milk are prone to prostate cancer. A research group in Boston conducted an 11-year follow-up survey of 20,885 American male physicians who drank milk or consumed dairy products daily. 1012 men had prostate cancer. The statistical analysis revealed that the concentration of dihydroxyvitamin D3 (which has an anti-prostate cancer effect) was significantly lower in the plasma of men who consumed 600 mg of calcium per day compared to men who consumed 150 mg of calcium from dairy products per day, and the risk of prostate cancer increased by 32%. Therefore, the majority of male friends are advised to drink milk every day should be moderate, do not take milk as water to drink. 4. Eat more tomatoes and drink green tea as appropriate. Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, which is an important carotenoid that is widely found in fruits and vegetables. In addition to tomatoes, apricots, guava, watermelon, papaya and red grapes also contain more lycopene. The antioxidant properties of lycopene are the strongest among natural carotenoids, and it has the ability to protect the genetic material DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and regulate the hormonal status, etc. Its anti-prostate cancer effects have been confirmed by numerous studies. The antioxidant-rich green tea consumed daily will also greatly reduce the possibility of prostate cancer. 5, Quit smoking, do not eat or eat less do not eat animal fat, proper supplementation of vitamin E can reduce the risk of prostate cancer by about 30%. When vitamin E is taken together with selenium, the effect is even better. Prostate cancer, like other malignant tumors, can be detected early and treated early with better results.
