Prostate Removal (TURP) Surgery in Mumbai

Cancer was once considered an incurable disease. But, with advancements in medical science, cancer cure is now available. There are four stages of cancer and it is generally detected when it has entered in second phase. Symptoms of cancer are rarely noticed in initial stage. As cancer advances to later stages, it becomes difficult to treat it. Organ removal is the only option to save patient from cancer when it has reached third stage.

Prostrate gland is removed if the cancerous cells have consumed whole organ. Removal of the organ is necessary so that other healthy tissues surrounding the organ remain unaffected. Cancer gradually spreads to whole body. So it is important to curb its development as early as possible.

To maintain healthy prostrate glands, following tips could prove useful:

• Red colored foods such as red bell peppers, tomatoes, watermelon etc., contain an antioxidant called lycopene that is useful in preventing occurrence of prostrate cancer.
• Nutrients present in green vegetables contain compounds that break down carcinogens (cancer causing substances).
• Isoflavones that are found in chickpeas, lentils, tofu, soy based products etc., lower the risk of prostrate cancer.
• Drinking 3-4 small cups of coffee (without milk) can as well reduce risk of prostrate cancer.
