Prostate Symptom Severity

By Susan Milena Valenzuela Puelles

Men are often unaware of when and in what situations they should go to the urologist for the first time, despite the fact that this is a key aspect in preventing and detecting diseases in men. The Spanish Urology Association (AEU) specifies that men should have their first prostate check-up after the age of 50, although if the patient has a first-degree family history of prostate cancer, he should visit him at the age of 40. The frequency of the check-up will be determined by the values of the analytical values and the symptoms they present. For example, if the man is over 40 years of age and has symptoms of prostatic enlargement, increased frequency of urination, urinary stream, or for example, postvoid dribbling, he should visit the specialist annually. In the present investigation we seek to determine the factors associated with the severity of prostatic symptoms in adults over 40 years of age in the Urology Service of the Hospital Nacional Dos De Mayo and the results will allow us to orient clinical attention towards the identification of these factors as prevention of the severity of the symptomatology.
