Symptoms

Most early prostate cancers do not present with any symptoms. In the prostate, many non-cancerous conditions, including benign prostatatic hyperplasia (or enlargement) usually present with symptoms including:
•    Urinary hesitancy (delayed or slowed start of urinary stream)
•    Urinary dribbling, especially immediately after urinating
•    Urinary retention
•    Pain with urination
•    Pain with ejaculation
•    Lower back pain
•    Pain with bowel movement
•    Excessive urination at night
Although rare, sometimes prostate cancer can be associated with these symptoms as well.

More advanced disease can present with:
•    Bone pain or tenderness
•    Blood in the urine (hematuria)
•    Abdominal pain
•    Anemia or low red blood cell count
•    Unintentional weight loss
•    Lethargy
