Pumpkin seeds offer numerous health benefits, including improved prostate health and fertility boost for men.
Prostate Health:
Clinical research indicates that pumpkin seeds may help in relieving symptoms of
benign
prostatic
hyperplasia
(BPH), a condition in which the prostate gland enlarges.

Dustasteride (avodart)
My doc has prescribed this drug for
benign
prostatic
hyperplasia
. I need help with urinary frequency, urgency, and frequent night time urination. It is too early to tell if the drug is helping. It can three to six months to have the desired effect of reducing prostate swelling.

Prostate-Kidney and BPH Decision for treatment.
Hi everyone. Hoping to get some input from the collective experience and knowledge of the helpful people on this forum in making a decision on course of treatment. I apologize for length of post, but, with two issues (prostate and kidney) it took a bit to accurately explain. Newly diagnosed with Prostate

PSA suppression
My PSA lows tend to be around 3.3, and it occurs to me that some might think it odd that I don't drive it lower. I think it is very common for men on ADT to draw too much comfort from a significant PSA reduction, if not a near-zero PSA. I have witnessed men misinterpret a dramatic drop in PSA as

The Warburg Effect [an increase in the rate of glucose uptake and preferential production of lactate, even in the presence of oxygen.]
We retrospectively analyzed data from 390 patients with PCa or
benign
prostatic
hyperplasia
(BPH) at the Department of Urology, University of Catania. Immunohistochemical slides were evaluated for the expression of proteins related to glucose and lipidic metabolism.

Active Surveillance Still a Good Option?
The results of the latest one was similar to the other 2: IMPRESSION:
Benign
prostatic
hyperplasia
with peripheral zone scarring. PI-RADS2. Elevated PSA density, increased from prior study. Continued follow-up is recommended if repeat biopsy is not elected.

How Long To Discontinue 5-ARIs and/or Select Supplements to "Unmask" PSA?
Disregarding the discussion as whether to temporarily discontinue or not discontinue in fht efirst place... Purportedly some substances may "mask" PSA. I believe the general rule of thumb is on 5-ARIs like Avodart (Dutasteride) you are supposed to double the PSA reading to get the "real" PSA? In addition

some suggestions - PCa websites?
Hey all: As I’ve mentioned before, I’m doing a comic about this experience. I want to have a short section at the end with websites that are good for learning about prostate cancer. I have room for a few more, and am looking for suggestions. Not an exhaustive list, but hoping for a useful list: Thanks

European Medicines Agency approves Phase II trial of uTRACE in prostate cancer: good news because they also have uTREAT
While uTRACE is a diagnostic tool, its brother uTREAT will be a very interesting radioligand for drug delivery in the near future (like Actinium, Lutetium & Co) uTRACE is used as a PET-tracer ligand that targets the uPAR receptor, which is known to be a biomarker for cancer aggressiveness. https:

Ketogenic diet alters the epigenetic and immune landscape of prostate cancer to overcome resistance to immune checkpoint blockade therapy.
Overall, this strikes me as too hypothetical for us to apply, but what do I know? "Overall, these findings illuminate a potential clinical path of using HDACi and optimized KD regimens to enhance ICB therapy for PCa." HDACi = histone deacetylase inhibitor [To date, four HDAC inhibitors, Vorinostat

Any adverse effect if taking three-month Lupron shot two weeks late?
Hi friends, my father has been on Lupron shots every three months with Abiraterone pills for about a year now. His next shot will be 14 weeks due to some insurance problems. What is the ideal and acceptable time range between shots that won’t risks benefits of treatment? What is the out of pocket price
