Prostate Basics Week - Day 3
Today's question is when. When does the prostate become a problem?
My honest answer: long before you notice.
Mine is a good example. A friend at the airport pointed out what I had not seen. When I started reading, I realised I had been living with early signs for a while. I had put each one down to getting older.
That is how it goes for most men. The prostate grows slowly from about 25 onwards. Each change is small enough to ignore. By the time anyone says the word prostate, it has usually been building for years.
About half of men have a prostate issue by 50, and it goes up roughly 10% every decade after.
When I looked into it, I made a few small changes and started getting my PSA checked. That is a simple blood test. Nothing dramatic. It just meant I knew where I stood.
So, for the men here: what was the first change you noticed? And for the partners: what did you notice before he did?
