The prostate gland refers to a type of male reproductive organ that creates fluids which nourish and shield sperm cells. Prostate cancer, prostatitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are the three most common types of prostate diseases. The symptoms of these diseases include blood in the sperm or urine, painful ejaculation, frequent urges to urinate, and dribbling of urine. A number of tests are used to diagnose prostate diseases including the PSA test, biopsies of the prostate, mid-stream urine (MSU) tests, etc. Depending on the type of prostatitis, antibacterial medications and supportive therapies can be used in the treatment. The treatment for BPH may include drugs to reduce the size of the prostate and relax the smooth muscle of the gland as well as surgery to create a permanently enlarged channel in the part of the urethra that passes through the prostate. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the assessment and management of prostate diseases. Its extensive content provides the readers with a thorough understanding of these medical conditions.
