※ This video is an excerpt from the November 24, 2017 broadcast of "Do You Visit a Urologist Often? - Prostate Cancer, Bladder Cancer." Just as you should undergo an upper endoscopy for indigestion or unexplained abdominal pain, and a colonoscopy for changes in bowel habits or bloody stool, when should you see a urologist? 10-20 years ago, urology was a shameful place visited through the "back door." While perceptions have changed as the types of urology patients have diversified, with issues like male menopause, prostate disease, urinary stones, and urinary incontinence becoming more prevalent, it's still difficult to visit a urologist. However, according to the National Cancer Information Center, prostate cancer was the 7th most common cancer in 2014, and bladder cancer was the 13th, highlighting the importance of proactively seeking urological care. Prostate and bladder cancers are often painless in their early stages, often manifesting as symptoms in the urine, making them easy to overlook... According to the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, as of 2016, patients in their 70s were the most common, followed by those in their 60s and 80s and older. Therefore, prostate cancer is often perceived as a disease that doesn't develop in young men. But can we really be reassured? Han Sang-hyun (male, 48 years old) underwent his first PSA (prostate-specific antigen) test in 2009. Although his levels were higher than normal, the diagnosis at the time was benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This was due to his young age. However, when he retested in 2016, his levels were more than three times higher than before. Only then was Han Sang-hyun (male, 48 years old) diagnosed with prostate cancer. With metastases already present, he feels the eight years of neglect are a waste. PSA (prostate-specific antigen) testing is not included in health insurance health checkups. When is the right time to start regular checkups?
