Prostate conditions

Prostate Conditions

Prostate conditions can range from prostate cancer, to benign prostate hyperplasia and radio-reccurent prostate cancer. Although different prostate conditions can have overlapping side effects, not all prostate conditions are malignant. Click the links below to learn about the differences of each prostate condition.

Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is described as a change in the tissue. The prognosis depends on how far the cancer has spread at the time of diagnosis.

Prostate Cancer

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

With BPH, there is an overgrowth of prostate tissue that pushes against the urethra and the bladder, restricting the flow of urine.

Radio-recurrent prostate cancer

Sometimes, radiation therapy fails to eliminate prostate cancer completely. Recurrent prostate cancer after radiation therapy is a serious health risk for approximately 20% – 30% of radiation-treated patients.
