Prostate Cancer in Young Men | Trussty Jasmine

Prostate gland in men can indeed be said to be a unique organ. First, because of its position are hidden so not easy to know if there is a problem. Second, because of its function as a manufacturer of nutritional fluid for sperm. "In men, this gland has been there since infancy, only the most recent 1 gram size," says Prof. dr. Rainy Umbas, PhD, SpU, urologists from the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia and Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, in educating the media about prostate cancer in Jakarta last week.

On his way, there are three problems that often plague the prostate, namely inflammation, prostatitis or an enlarged prostate gland without the presence of malignancy, as well as the most feared of prostate cancer. The third problem, according to Professor Rainy, not only attacking elderly men. Because, there are one or two cases of men of productive age, 25-30 years, had become inflamed. "That is when experiencing high stress, such as business career," said Rainy. In contrast to inflammation, cancer occurs in the new cell growth or proliferation of cells that do not correspond to the ideal growth pattern. These cancer cells can then be spread, even into bone cells, resulting in bone loss.

Those who have high risk, for example, prefer to consume foods with high fat, less sunlight, heavy metal exposure, family history, and the race factor, you should beware of the beginning. "There is a hereditary risk factors as much as 5 percent. As for other reasons, scholars today do not yet know the exact cause," said Rainy.

Based on data from the RSCM and the RS. Dharmais, Professor Rainy recorded 15-20 years ago a number of cases of prostate cancer is still low. However, in the last 10 years, there is increased up to threefold. "But there is an increase in recent years in Asia and Jakarta. There are several reasons, eg more people are aware of the symptoms. It could also be due to a growing number of experts who can detect the disease. So, if there are any sufferers can be known earlier, "Rainy said. However, he said, which makes worrying, 80 percent of patients who come already in an advanced stage, when cancer cells metastasize, or spread already.

When in fact high-risk patients who are able to recognize the symptoms, such as frequent night waking to urinate, urinating more than eight times a day, weakened urine stream, have to push now for urine, and incomplete when urinating. Further symptoms can be characterized by sperm or urine, which often mixed with blood, erection problems, and bone pain caused by cancer cells have spread, such as the spine and hip bone.

Examination can be done by digital rectal. "Although it sounds uncomfortable, this is actually an ordinary examination. And it can only be determined in this way because the position of the prostate are very hidden," said Rainy. In addition to digital rectal, can be confirmed by blood tests through the prostate-specific antigen (PSA ).*** [UTAMI WIDOWATI | KORAN TEMPO 3587]
