probably not cancer, but an infection

Go to the doctor, just to be safe. It is highly unlikely, but possible. My friend's ex-boyfriend had it in his late teens. Good luck.
3 :
more like an std or kidney infection, though a baby can be born with any kind of cancer, you need to see a doctor,
4 :
anything is possible
5 :
yes it is,believe or not 20 -35 year olds get prostate cancer quite often,it's not an older persons problem but you may just have a U.T.I.......try some penicillin but go to a doctor
6 :
YOU NEED TO SEE A SPECIALIST PROSTATE IN REAL IT DOESN'T HAVE AGE IS LIKE ANY CANCER YOU CAN FIND CANCER EVEN IN KIDS Cancer don't makes exceptions!!!!!
7 :
it is possible , everybody who has prostate can have prostate cancer but urine problems can be caused by urethra, urin bladder...sympthoms of cancer are different
8 :
It sounds more like a urinary tract infection to me. And it won't go away by itself. You have to get antibiotics from your doctor, and be sure to take them all, even though you feel better. If prostate cancer runs in your family, you might want to have it checked out. But 20 yrs old sounds very young. Most men don't start getting symptoms till well after 50. The main symptom is not being to empty your bladder, and having a very weak stream.

It's theoretically possible but, extremely unlikely. I did some research on youngest diagnosed prostate cancer case. I found one at 27 years of age. So, I doubt you have it. More likely a urinary tract infection. I doubt they'd do a PSA test for someone that young. More likely a DRE (digital rectal exam..... yes, it is exact as it sounds).

You're never to young for cancer. My advice is go see a urologist and have your PSA reading done. PSA testing saves lives!

only a doctor can tell you for sure
