  • Many men are wary of having a prostate exam but it really is less an ordeal than you fear. This video by Dr. Gerald Chodak from www.prostatevid... will explain what will happen, how long it will take and what to expect.

    you know, i'm realy shocked by some of these comments. u guys are syaing that u'd rather die a slow and painful death, then take about 20secs of feeling uncomfortable? that just doesn't seem right....

    • @Dudemeister-id9mw
      @Dudemeister-id9mw 6 років тому +1

      Uhm yeah, or at least until said pain was intolerable and at that point I'll just jump off of a bridge. The "other way".. That "oh, it's no big deal. Doctor's aren't going to judge a stranger. It's not so bad. It's over before you know it. It can save your life." fuck all the way off with that shit. Dying trumps the cost of the therapy and drugs it would take to cope with that trauma afterwards.

      You know if you get prostate cancer you're going to have things going up your rectum all the time for testing and whatnot so you might as well just do this for 20 seconds and get it over with. Women have to have pelvic exams once a YEAR usually from the age of around 20 years old until approximately 55 years old and it takes a lot longer than 20 seconds (and some women have to have rectal exams at the same time for certain conditions). If we can do it, you guys can too. I promise you'll be okay. It looks and sounds way worse than it actually is. By the way I suggest having a woman do it only because they have smaller fingers. Yes, it may feel a little more embarrassing to some, but as everyone knows, size does make a difference. After you do it the first time you'll see how easy it is, I promise. YOU GUYS GOT THIS! Take action to save your own lives! 👍

    @davidxtian Unfortunately not, the grading of prostate cancer is based on its appearance under the microscope. The doctor can get some estimate of the size of the prostate from the prostate exam but it only give two dimensions not all three

    I might have to do this procedure and I almost wish I was dead. Everything doctors do hurts, and they always say discomfort, but it usualy means pain. I have been dealing with urinary issues for ten years cuz I didn't want to deal with all the medical procedures and somethins wrong with me and I wish I was just dead. I deal with the urge to urinate all the time and it's horrible and depressing.

    The PSA has a better ability to detect prostate cancer. About 80% of tumors are detected by PSA alone but if you want to have the best chance of finding cancer, have both done.

    Do not do a biopsy insist upon an MRI prostate test instead as it’s much less invasive much more accurate and the only reason urologist wants to do a biopsy is because he makes a small fortune on each patient and makes nothing on the MRI. the MRI is much more accurate and non-invasive!
