Prostate Health (iPad version)

If you are 45 years or older, you will be interested to know that prostate evaluations are recommended for your age group. A team of expert urologists have developed this application, which provides answers to the following questions:

What is the prostate?
Do I have prostate symptoms?
When should I have an evaluation, and what does the evaluation consist of?
How can my physician treat my symptoms?
What is PSA?
What is a prostate biopsy?
What options do I have if I am diagnosed with prostate cancer?
What is prostatitis?

In addition to answering these questions and many others, with this application, you can fill out a questionnaire of prostate symptoms to determine the presence or degree of symptoms you may have (mild, moderate, or severe). You can also record your PSAs or your physician recommendations.

This application is only intended to provide information and guidance on issues related to the prostate. This information should not replace consultation with your primary physician or your urologist. Visiting your physicians is among the various recommendations that are made.

Not all aspects of care can be discussed with the depth they deserve. As we are aware of this, we propose that interested users communicate with us via email ([email protected]). We welcome your suggestions to improve the application.
