The uncontrollable growth of cells in the prostate gland is prostate cancer, it is easy to treat if it is discovered early.
Common symptoms are: frequent urination at night, straining while urinating and back ache.
The most common way to diagnose abnormalities with the prostate gland is through a Prostate Specific Antigen, or PSA test.
PSA is a protein produced by the prostate and released into the blood stream in very small quantities.
More PSA is released when there is a problem with the prostate, and elevated levels can indicate prostatitis, enlarged prostate or prostate cancer.
