Prostate cancer symptoms and signs: Look for this when you urinate
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK and because it develops slowly there may be no signs you have it in the early stages.
Symptoms often become apparent when your prostate is large enough to affect the tube that carries urine form the bladder to the penis - the urethra.
According to Bupa, there are eight symptoms you could experience as the disease progresses - all of which are linked to the way you urinate.
The first is pain when urinate. You may also be unable to urinate, need to urinate urgently, need to urinate more often than usual, get up to urinate during the night, or have blood in your urine.
Having a weak flow of urine when you go to the toilet, or having trouble starting or stopping when you urinate, can also be indicators.
