About service
The prostate gland is a crucial organ of the male reproductive system. It produces a secretion containing vitamins, zinc ions, immunoglobulins, proteins, and other beneficial microelements. This secretion is part of semen and promotes the movement of spermatozoa through the female reproductive tract. If the prostate gland’s activity decreases, sexual function deteriorates significantly.
For preventive purposes, men over 45 years of age are recommended to undergo prostate ultrasound at least once a year.
Transabdominal ultrasound is performed through the anterior abdominal wall. This is a completely painless diagnostic method, although it is not commonly used.
Indications for Prostate Ultrasound
The characteristic symptoms of prostate diseases can be divided into three groups.
Urination-related problems:
difficulty during voiding,
painful sensations,
urinary outflow disorders,
frequent urination,
change in urine color,
presence of blood,
feeling of incomplete bladder emptying.
Pain and discomfort localized in:
perineum,
scrotum,
lower back,
sacrum.
Deterioration of sexual function:
loss of sexual interest,
disappearance of morning erection,
change in semen color,
insufficient penile rigidity during intercourse,
infertility,
imbalance between orgasm and ejaculation,
absence of sexual desire.
All these signs may indicate disorders of the prostate gland. Ultrasound diagnostics is the best method for their detection.
Diseases Diagnosed with Ultrasound
Prostate ultrasound is performed for the prevention and detection of various diseases, such as:
Prostatitis. Once considered an age-related disease, prostatitis is now increasingly common among young men aged 20–40. The main causes are sexually transmitted infections (gonorrhea, chlamydia, etc.). The European Association of Urology warns that if left undiagnosed or neglected, prostatitis may lead to prostate cancer.
Benign and malignant tumors. Prostate cancer is the most frequent oncological disease among men over 50. Risk factors include genetic predisposition, occupational exposure to toxic substances, and disturbances in testosterone synthesis.
Prostatic adenoma (benign prostatic hyperplasia, BPH). According to the World Health Organization, this disease affects men over 40; after age 80, its prevalence reaches 95%. Unbalanced diet and excess body weight are contributing factors.
Cystitis. A rare but detectable condition in men, cystitis is an inflammation of the bladder mucosa leading to functional impairment.
Prostate ultrasound also allows to:
monitor disease progression,
determine prostate size and structure,
assess blood flow in blood vessels.
Preparation for Ultrasound
Preparatory measures depend on the type of ultrasound performed: transabdominal (through the anterior abdominal wall) or transrectal (through the rectum).
For transabdominal ultrasound, preparation is minimal: the bladder must be moderately filled. This can be achieved by drinking about 700 ml of water one hour before the procedure.
After the examination, the physician may ask the patient to urinate for a repeat ultrasound. This helps to detect residual urine in the bladder.
How the Procedure Is Performed
The patient lies on his back with the abdomen exposed. The physician applies a special gel and moves the ultrasound probe over the abdominal wall in specific directions. The prostate is examined in detail, its dimensions measured, and abnormalities noted.
The procedure lasts about 10 minutes and is maximally comfortable.
Advantages of Ultrasound at Expert Clinics
Each year, 1.3 million new cases of prostate cancer are diagnosed worldwide. This alarming statistic demonstrates that not all patients seek medical care in time.
Every man over 30 years old should include prostate ultrasound in his annual health check-up. This helps to prevent serious physical and psychological problems.
At Expert Clinics, the latest diagnostic and therapeutic methods are applied. The main principle of the clinic is a personalized approach to each patient.
Prevention of Prostate Diseases
Prevention plays a key role in avoiding prostate pathologies. Essential recommendations include:
Healthy diet — balanced, with adequate vitamins, proteins, healthy fats, and microelements.
Strong immunity — avoid frequent infections and maintain adequate nutrient levels.
Physical activity.
Regular sexual life — with necessary precautions.
Timely treatment of infectious diseases, which are often triggers of prostate conditions.
Following these simple rules will help preserve men’s health for as long as possible.
