  • Assessment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in Younger Men
    MEN’S HEALTH ASSESSMENT OF LOWER URINARY TRACT SYMPTOMS IN YOUNGER MEN Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are common in the ageing male and represent a significant burden on both the patient and the healthcare system worldwide. 1,2 Accordingly, the majority of clinical trials and guidelines focus on the older patient, despite the fact that men below these ages will also present with many of the same symptoms. In this review, the authors explore the challenges of assessing and managing men below 50 years with LUTS.

  • Prostatitis Explained Prostatitis
    Prostate information Prostatitis Explained Prostatitis Prostatitis (prost-a-ty-tus) is the most common prostate problem for men under 50, but it can affect men of all ages. In fact, almost 1 out of 2 men between 18 and 50 may have at least one bout of prostatitis in their lifetime. Prostatitis is often described as an infection of the prostate but it can also mean that the prostate is inflammed or irritated. If you have prostatitis, you may have a burning feeling when passing urine, pass urine more often, be in a lot of pain, have a fever and chills and feel very tired. Once your doctor has diagnosed your symptoms as prostatitis, then the outlook tends to be good. There are many treatments available and your doctor will work with you to find the treatment(s) most suitable for you depending on the type of prostatitis you have. So, it may take slightly longer for some men to see an improvement in their symptoms. However, even when you feel your symptoms are starting to improve you should still continue with your treatment or medication. It may be reassuring to know that prostatitis is neither connected with cancer nor does it mean there is an increased risk of developing prostate cancer in the future, but it can cause worrying symptoms.
