It was a wonderful evening of good food, hearty conversations and great company at Atout @ Dempsey. Thankful for the GP colleagues who spent their evening with us. Patient-centered care depends alot on good communication between GPs and specialists. It has been a pleasure working with these GPs and their patients are so blessed to have them as primary care doctors. #urohealthmedicalclinic #urology #socialnight

If there is to be at least one good thing that came out of Covid, it has to be getting everybody to place a much greater importance on fitness and health. Staying active is also important in the fight against prostate cancer. Many studies have shown that exercising helps delay and prevent the progression of prostate cancer. In the case where you have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, a study done by Dr June M, Chan showed that three or more hours a week of vigorous activity was associated with an approximate 60% reduction in the risk of dying from prostate cancer. The key is not to be sedentary. Even more cardio-friendly levels of exercise like walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk walk pace can greatly benefit one as well. Dr Chan believes exercise improves energy metabolism, reduces inflammation and boosts immunity. All of which has benefits for prostate cancer and overall fitness and health. You know what to do! Stay active, stay alive! #urohealthmedicalclinic #urology #prostatecancer #exercise

As we approach Prostate Cancer Awareness Month in November, let us address the top 5 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on Prostate Cancer.
1) Do testosterone supplements cause prostate cancer?
Most studies seem to suggest there is no correlation between testosterone supplements and prostate cancer occurrence. However, if you do have prostate cancer, testosterone supplementation may aggravate the cancer.
2) When should I start screening for prostate cancer?
General guidelines suggest that men in their 50s get checked for prostate cancer. However, if you have a higher risk of developing prostate cancer such as family history factors, you may want to start screening for prostate cancer in your 40s.
3) Does a biopsy increase the risk of prostate cancer spreading if I do have prostate cancer?
No, prostate cancer does not spread that way.
4) Is prostate cancer curable?
Prostate cancer is one of the most successfully treated types of cancer if the disease is discovered and treated early. Many male patients who receive treatment for prostate cancer in its early stages go on to live their normal lifespan.
5) Does red meat cause prostate cancer?
High consumption of red meats does appear to be related to an increased risk of prostate cancer.
