Expert answer
Prostate screening is recommended for men over 45 years of age. We emphasize: you do not need to wait for the symptoms of the disease (among which – difficulty urinating, blood in urine and / or semen, weight loss for no reason, back pain, legs). At an early stage, the tumor may not reveal its presence, and it can be detected only by examination. In this case, the chances of effective treatment are the highest!
If your father, brother or several close relatives have had prostate cancer, you should start the test earlier. You can pass such diagnostics in the Center of modern urology LISOD – qualitatively and in comfortable conditions. You can also get individual recommendations from our experts on the tactics of examinations – taking into account the family history of the disease and personal risk factors.
