Abstract
The prostate gland plays a vital role in men’s health, yet it often remains overlooked until problems arise. Maintaining good prostate health is essential not only for comfortable urination and reproductive function but also for reducing the risk of serious conditions like prostate cancer. Prostate cancer, one of the most common cancers in men, can be managed effectively when caught early. Natural herbs and lifestyle changes can support prostate health, improve immunity, and enhance quality of life. In today’s article, we will discuss how the Prosta-Crab Care Pack by Planet Ayurveda combines powerful Ayurvedic herbs to help manage prostate health and support men fighting prostate cancer, offering a natural way to improve well-being and vitality.
Introduction
Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer affecting men, especially in older age. As of recent global data, prostate cancer affects about 1 in 8 men during their lifetime. It develops in the prostate gland, which is a small organ responsible for producing seminal fluid. It is seen many prostate cancers grow slowly and may not cause serious harm, others can be aggressive and spread quickly to other parts of the body. Prostate cancer can have a significant impact on a man’s quality of life, especially when it affects urinary and reproductive functions. Early detection and timely support play a major role in its management. Further let’s study the causes of Prostate Cancer in detail!
Causes Of Prostate Cancer
The exact cause of prostate cancer is not always known, several factors can contribute to its development. Here are the most recognized causes and risk factors:
- Growing Age: The risk becomes higher after the age of 50.
- Family History: If your father or brother had prostate cancer, your chances are higher.
- Inherited Genes: Some changes in genes passed from parents may increase risk.
- Hormone Levels: High levels of male hormones (like testosterone) can affect prostate growth.
- Race: African-American men have a higher chance of getting prostate cancer.
- Unhealthy Diet: Eating too much red meat, fried foods, or dairy, and not enough fruits and vegetables may raise the risk.
- Being Overweight: Extra body weight is linked to more serious prostate cancer.
- Long-term Swelling: Ongoing inflammation (swelling) of the prostate might play a role.
- Chemical Exposure: Working around harmful chemicals for long periods may slightly increase the risk.
Symptoms Of Prostate Cancer
In the early stages, prostate cancer may not cause any noticeable symptoms. But as it grows, some signs may appear, including:
- Frequent urge to urinate, especially at night
- Difficulty starting or stopping urination
- Weak or interrupted urine flow
- Pain or burning during urination
- Feeling that the bladder doesn’t empty completely
- Blood in urine or semen
- Painful ejaculation
- Discomfort or pain in the lower back, hips, or pelvis
- Trouble getting or keeping an erection (erectile dysfunction)
Diagnosis Of Prostate Cancer
Steps Of Prostate Cancer Diagnosis
- Initial Consultation and Medical History
- Physical Examination (Digital Rectal Examination – DRE)
- PSA Blood Test
- Imaging Tests (Ultrasound or MRI)
- Prostate Biopsy
- Lab Analysis of Biopsy Sample
- Gleason Score Assignment (to grade cancer)
- Staging Tests (if cancer is confirmed – CT scan, bone scan, etc.)
Ayurvedic Overview Of Prostate Cancer
According to Ayurveda there is no such direct correlation of Prostate Cancer. All types of Cancer in Ayurveda are correlated with Arbuda - malignant growth. Acharya Sushruta mentioned about all types of Arbuda occurring anywhere in the body in Sushruta Samhita Nidana Sthana Chapter no 11. While explaining about Arbuda he mentioned the following shloka or verse explaining its general features and pathophysiology.
गात्रप्रदेशे क्वचिदेव दोषाः सम्मूर्च्छिता मांसमभिप्रदूष्य |
वृत्तं स्थिरं मन्दरुजं महान्तमनल्पमूलं चिरवृद्ध्यपाकम् ||१३||
कुर्वन्ति मांसोपचयं तु शोफं तमर्बुदं शास्त्रविदो वदन्ति |
वातेन पित्तेन कफेन चापि रक्तेन मांसेन च मेदसा च ||१४||
तज्जायते तस्य च लक्षणानि ग्रन्थेः समानानि सदा भवन्ति |१५|
Sushruta Samhita Nidana Sthana Chapter no 11, Verse No. 13–15
Interpretation Of Shloka
- Arbuda is a type of large abnormal swelling or tumor described in Ayurveda.
- Where It Forms: It can appear in any part of the body.
- How It Feels and Looks: Slightly painful or sometimes painless, rounded shape, immovable (doesn’t move when touched), deep seated inside tissues and has roots that go deep into the flesh.
- Causes: Doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) get aggravated (disturbed) and these doshas vitiate (damage) the Mamsa Dhatu (Adipose tissue) and Rakta Dhatu (blood tissue) and over time, this causes abnormal tissue to grow.
- How It Grows: It is slow growing and does not usually form pus (non-suppurative).
