My dad's PSA level is 8.62 and his prostate weighs 65 grams. The MRI shows BPH but everything else looks normal. Should he consider surgery or can this be managed with medication?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A PSA level of 8.62, combined with a 65-gram prostate and a BPH diagnosis from an MRI, suggests that medication may be a good first approach, but surgery could be considered if symptoms are bothersome or if medication is not effective, according to the Cleveland Clinic and the Mayo Clinic. A biopsy is not automatically indicated with these findings, but your doctor will likely discuss this further with you based on the MRI results and your father's symptoms.

View allI've been experiencing this weird sensation where it feels like my urine is getting stuck in my urethra. My bladder thickness came out normal in tests, and I had a prevoid volume of 584ml and postvoid of 44ml. The prostate is supposed to be normal at 20.4 grams, but I have noticed there's less pressure when I try to pee in the morning. This has been going on for about 67 years, and even when I had it checked earlier, the doctor said everything seemed fine. He even applied pressure inside my anus, and some liquid came out of my penis, but tests showed no infection. I'm just confused about what's happening. Could you help me understand what might be causing this?
It sounds like you're experiencing symptoms of urinary retention or discomfort, which can sometimes occur without any underlying infection or structural issue, as your previous exams showed normal results. If the sensation persists or worsens, it might be helpful to follow up with a urologist for further evaluation to rule out any other causes, such as pelvic floor dysfunction or nerve issues.
