Who are the people who are prone to prostate cancer

There are many people who are prone to prostate cancer. Only by paying more attention to the people who are prone to prostate cancer can we pay attention to the occurrence and impact of this disease. We must protect the people who are prone to prostate disease and pay more attention to the impact of this disease.

1. Lecher

Some experts believe that in addition to diet and lifestyle habits, excessive visual and psychological sexual stimulation leads to excessive secretion of male hormones, which is a cause of prostate cancer.

Sexual stimulation is related to rapid growth of the prostate gland. It is reported that prostate disease is closely related to lifestyle and diet. Studies have found that the cholesterol content in prostate glands with hyperplasia and inflammation is twice that of normal glands. Elevated cholesterol is a cause of prostate cancer. The cause of prostate cancer is also related to hormones, especially androgens, which may play an important role. "Excessive secretion of male hormones causes the imbalance of hormones in the body and causes lesions. Hormone secretion is not only related to diet, but external sexual stimulation can also increase the secretion of male hormones." Professor Zhou Fangjian said that this statement came from a survey on prostate diseases in Arab countries and European and American countries. "At that time, experts from various countries conducted surveys on diet and habits, and I proposed to include sexual stimulation in them."

He explained that sexual stimulation includes visual and psychological stimulation. "Seeing girls wearing less clothes, reading and watching pornographic novels and movies, most men will have physiological and psychological reactions, and their hormone levels will rise accordingly." He continued to explain that black people have high testosterone levels, and relevant data show that prostate cancer among black people is also high. "Some Arab countries have a lifestyle similar to that of the West, but Arabs advocate halal, and women cover their heads from head to toe; the incidence rates of the two are very different."

2. Obese men

A new study finds that obese men have twice the risk of prostate cancer compared to men of normal weight.

Researchers say any effort to lose weight is likely to reduce the risk of prostate cancer, the incidence of which is steadily rising among men in developed countries.

Researchers at La Miletrie University Hospital in France studied 194 men with prostate cancer and 194 men being treated for noncancerous prostate enlargement or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BpH). The study found that while simply being overweight does not necessarily increase the risk of prostate cancer in men, obesity can still increase the risk of prostate cancer by 2.5 times.

3. Sexual indulgence

A British survey found that men who have a promiscuous sex life when they are young may have a higher chance of developing prostate cancer in the future.

The survey pointed out that if a person has many sexual partners around the age of 20, he or she is likely to be infected with human papillomavirus (HpV). Usually decades later, this infection may lead to a series of gene mutations, leading to cancer. HPV has been proven to be closely related to cervical cancer in women and may also cause prostate cancer in men.

4. Men who sit too high

A study from the Dukc University Medical Center reported that after studying the human anatomy of 28 prostate cancer patients, it was found that these patients sat higher on chairs than healthy people of the same height. Further research showed that those with high concentrations of the sex hormone testosterone increased their "sitting height" faster during development than those with normal testosterone concentrations. High concentrations of testosterone can induce subtle changes in prostate cells, stimulate the growth of cancer cells, and lead to the occurrence of prostate cancer in adulthood.

5. Bald man

Bald men are twice as likely to develop prostate cancer as non-bald men. Studies have found that hair loss may be caused by testosterone levels during puberty, and the risk of prostate cancer in men may be related to testosterone levels in the body, which may appear as early as puberty. In addition, hormones are also related to baldness, which may explain the relationship between baldness and prostate cancer.

6. Men working the night shift

According to researchers, from 1988 to 1997, nearly 16,000 men from 45 cities, towns and villages across Japan were surveyed to find out the relationship between working hours and the incidence of prostate cancer. Of all the men surveyed, 12,756 worked long-term day shifts, 1,184 worked long-term night shifts, and another 1,966 worked in shifts around the clock.

The above six types of men are prone to prostate cancer. Everyone must pay attention to the symptoms of prostate cancer. Only by paying more attention to the different symptoms of these types of men can we clearly diagnose whether they have prostate cancer.
