What is Prostate Screening?
A screening for signs of prostate cancer in its early stages, when it’s most treatable. It is advocated for men over 50, together with a Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) blood test.
Because most diagnosed prostate cancer is asymptomatic and grows slowly, this is the only avenue to ensure prostate health. Early detection of prostate abnormalities can help you avoid the urinary problems and impotence associated with later-stage diagnosis as well as spread of the disease in some cases.
