Watch for Potential
Signs and Symptoms

It’s important to talk to your doctor about any new or worsening symptoms, as they may be a result of a benign condition, not cancer. But some prostate cancer symptoms are:

  • Blood in the urine or semen
  • Pain in the hips, back, chest or other areas from cancer that has spread
  • Problems urinating
  • Weakness or numbness in the legs or feet, or loss of bladder/bowel control from cancer pressing on the spinal cord

    Surgery (Robotic Radical Prostatectomy)
