Any of these symptoms may be caused by cancer or by other, less serious health problems, such as BPH or an infection (Prostatitis). Only a doctor can tell cause. A man who has symptoms like these should see his family doctor . Do not wait to feel pain; early prostate cancer does not cause pain.

These are two other main prostate problems

1) BPH - (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia) is abnormal growth of benign prostate cells. In an enlarged prostate , prostate grows larger and pushes against urethra and bladder, blocking normal flow of urine. BPH is often result of prostatitis.

2) Prostatitis refers to prostate inflammation and infection, which can be brief or long-lasting, mild or severe symptoms can include frequent, urgent and painful urination, erectile problems or pain during ejaculation.

Prostatitis is rampant in US, affecting at least 80% of American men. Most is without major symptoms. Prostate enlargement, called Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH) is often result of prostatitis.

A lot of weight loss you see will be water, but many people find they do drop a dress size after having been on seven day programme.

Basically, you eat as much cabbage soup as you want for a week, plus a very limited amount of other foods. To stay on programme for longer than a week will be counter-productive and will affect your health and energy levels.
