Prostate Cancer

What is Prostate Cancer?

Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the prostate gland, a small gland in men that produces seminal fluid. Prostate cancer is often slow-growing, but certain aggressive forms require prompt and specialized treatment.

Causes of Prostate Cancer:

  • Age: Prostate cancer risk increases significantly after age 50.
  • Family History: A family history of prostate cancer or specific genetic mutations, such as BRCA1 or BRCA2, can increase risk.
  • Lifestyle Factors: Diets high in fats and low in fruits and vegetables may increase risk.
  • Hormones: Higher levels of certain hormones, like testosterone, have been linked to increased risk.

Symptoms of Prostate Cancer:

  • Difficulty urinating, including weak or interrupted flow
  • Frequent urination, especially at night
  • Blood in urine or semen
  • Pain in the lower back, hips, or thighs
  • Erectile dysfunction or discomfort during ejaculation

Treatment Options:

  • Early-Stage Cancer: Active surveillance for slow-growing cancer, or radiation therapy to target cancer cells.
  • Localized Cancer: Surgical removal of the prostate (prostatectomy), often performed with minimally invasive techniques.
  • Advanced Cancer: Hormone therapy, chemotherapy, or targeted therapies to control cancer growth.
  • Robotic and Minimally Invasive Surgery: Dr. Swapnil utilizes advanced robotic and laparoscopic methods for precise treatment with reduced recovery time.
