About Prostate & Bladder Cancer
Prostate cancer develops in the prostate gland, a small gland in men that produces fluid that forms part of semen. It may develop slowly or grow more aggressively, depending on the type of cancer. Common symptoms can include difficulty passing urine, frequent urination, a weak urine stream, or blood in the urine or semen. Some patients may not experience symptoms in the early stages. Diagnosis may involve a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test, physical examination, MRI, and biopsy when required. Bladder cancer develops when abnormal cells grow in the lining of the urinary bladder. The most common warning sign is blood in the urine, which may or may not cause pain. Other symptoms can include frequent urination, urgency, or discomfort during urination. Diagnosis may involve urine tests, imaging, and cystoscopy, a procedure that allows the doctor to examine the inside of the bladder. Early evaluation helps determine the stage of the cancer and guides treatment planning.
