Signs and Symptoms of Prostate Cancer

Nocturia

Nocturia or having to urinate at night is another possible symptom of prostate cancer. In fact, this condition is very common in the elderly. But compared to healthy men, those with cancer might experience more significant changes in their habits. If you do not often get up at night to urinate before, make sure to talk to your healthcare provider. If you often get up once at night and now need to do so 2 or 3 times, it is also important to seek medical support. Keep in mind that prostate cancer is only one out of many possible causes of nocturia. Thus, do not be frightened until you get diagnosed. [3]
