Is prostate cancer contagious between husband and wife?

Prostate cancer is not contagious between couples because women do not have a prostate gland and the disease is not contagious, so there is no need to worry too much. Patients need to receive targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor and take good care of themselves in daily life to improve their quality of life.

Prostate cancer is a malignant tumor that may be related to genetic factors, inflammation and infection. Hormone abnormalities, obesity, smoking, etc. may increase the probability of disease. Women will not get this disease, and men with this disease will not infect women. However, some diseases may occur in both husband and wife at the same time, such as stomach cancer and liver cancer.

Because couples have the same diet and living environment, they may suffer from stomach cancer at the same time under the influence of a carcinogenic factor for a long time. Liver cancer is mainly caused by cirrhosis after hepatitis virus infection, and hepatitis virus is contagious between couples, so couples may suffer from liver cancer at the same time.

If you have symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, difficulty urinating, weight loss, fatigue, etc., you can go to the hospital's urology department, oncology department and other related departments for treatment, complete prostate-specific antigen test, transrectal ultrasound, etc., to make a clear diagnosis. Follow the doctor's advice to undergo radical prostatectomy, such as retropubic prostatectomy, laparoscopic prostatectomy, etc., and then use megestrol acetate dispersible tablets, leuprorelin acetate microspheres for injection and other drugs for treatment.
