Expert Insights by Dr. Sumant Gupta, Leading Cancer Specialist in Faridabad
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting men globally, particularly those above the age of 50. While many cases progress slowly, early detection and the right treatment plan can significantly improve outcomes.
At Metro Hospital Faridabad, Dr. Sumant Gupta—a renowned oncologist and cancer specialist—offers expert, personalized treatment for prostate cancer using the latest technologies and clinical protocols.
The prostate gland is a small organ located below the bladder in men that plays a role in semen production. Prostate cancer occurs when abnormal cells develop in this gland and begin to grow uncontrollably.
Not all prostate cancers are life-threatening. Some grow slowly and remain confined, while others are aggressive and spread quickly to other parts of the body, such as bones or lymph nodes.
Age is the strongest risk factor.
Most prostate cancer cases occur in men over 50, and risk significantly increases after age 65.
Routine screenings are recommended for early detection in older men.
Men with a first-degree relative (father or brother) who had prostate cancer are at twice the risk.
BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations, commonly linked to breast cancer, also increase prostate cancer risk.
Elevated levels of androgens (male hormones) can stimulate the growth of prostate cells—both normal and cancerous.
Hormone-related therapies are often part of prostate cancer treatment.
Excess body fat is associated with higher-grade prostate cancers and worse outcomes.
Obesity may also reduce the effectiveness of some treatments and increase the risk of recurrence.
Diets rich in processed meats, high-fat dairy, and low in vegetables may increase risk.
Exposure to certain environmental chemicals, like pesticides or industrial toxins, may also contribute to prostate cancer development.
The effects can vary depending on the stage and aggressiveness of the cancer. Some key symptoms and complications include:
Difficulty in urination or weak urine stream
Blood in urine or semen
Painful ejaculation
Pain in the hips, back, or pelvis
Erectile dysfunction
Bone pain (if cancer spreads)
Emotional stress and anxiety
Many men in early stages remain asymptomatic, which is why regular screening is crucial.
Early detection involves:
PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) Blood Test
Digital Rectal Examination (DRE)
MRI or Ultrasound Imaging
Prostate Biopsy to confirm the presence and type of cancer
Staging helps determine whether the cancer is localized, regionally advanced, or has metastasized.
