If you have trouble with your prostate usually the first thing you notice is that you have trouble peeing. The urethra, the tube that carries your urine from your bladder, runs right through the prostate, so it gets sort of pinched off. You have to pee a lot and you only go a little each time. Or you feel pain when you pee. But there are a lot of things that can cause this, especially in middle age (after 40 or so). So a doctor will order tests. He can feel the prostate with a finger to see if there are lumps. Prostate cancer is fairly common but it develops very slowly. If it's diagnosed in a man over 60, they don't even treat it because you probably won't live long enough for it to be a problem. It is one of the most common types of cancer in men, but one of the least dangerous.

Initally you can get an indication by the symptoms. The symptoms of Prostate caner are - Prostate cancer usually doesn't produce any noticeable symptoms in its early stages, so many cases of prostate cancer aren't detected until the cancer has spread beyond the prostate. For most men, prostate cancer is first detected during a routine screening such as a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test or a digital rectal exam (DRE). When signs and symptoms do occur, they depend on how advanced the cancer is and how far the cancer has spread. Early signs and symptoms of prostate cancer can include urinary problems, caused when the prostate tumor presses on the bladder or on the tube that carries urine from the bladder (urethra). However, urinary symptoms are much more commonly caused by benign prostate problems, such as an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia) or prostate infections. Less than 5 percent of cases of prostate cancer have urinary problems as the initial symptom. When urinary signs and symptoms do occur, they can include: - Trouble urinating - Starting and stopping while urinating - Decreased force in the stream of urine Cancer in your prostate or the area around the prostate can cause: - Blood in your urine - Blood in your semen What causes prostate cancer and why some types behave differently are unknown. The precise cause of prostate cancer is not known. However, there are several known risk factors for disease including age over 55, African-American heritage, a family history of the disease, occupational exposure to cadmium or rubber, a high-fat diet, ethnicity, hormones, and the environment. Men with high plasma testosterone levels may also have an increased risk for developing prostate cancer. Research suggests that a combination of these factors may play a role.-

You should get checked regular, if you wait for symptoms to appear then you may be putting yourself at risk for metastasis. If you don't know what that is then you should read the article below. http://www.healthmad.com/Conditions-and-Diseases/What-is-Metastasis-and-Why-is-It-So-Deadly.311389 The fortunate thing about prostate cancer is that it is so slow growing that most men that get it usually die from an unrelated cause
