Patient's question:
Father's health check revealed a prostate TPSA 13.3/fPSA level, which was normal at the time, but he didn't undergo a thorough examination. The 2018 January health check report showed a prostate TPSA 13.8/fPSA 1.02. There were no abnormalities in daily urination, but mild pain was felt in both pelvic bones. Now, he has undergone a transrectal ultrasound and enhanced MRI. Could you please review the reports and determine the likelihood of prostate cancer? If it is prostate cancer, is it in the early stages?Doctor's answer:
If the patient's constitution is relatively good, surgical treatment should be the first choice in the early stage. After surgery, a combination of radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine should be adopted for consolidation treatment to prevent recurrence and spread. For prostate patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and targeted treatment, and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
