Please please can anyone help me , my son 22 as been told by his consultant that he as a prostate of a 80yr old man. In a matter of 2wks he's had a ultrasound, a camera up his penis , a flow test and a MRI scan. 7 consultants have looked at his results and cant give us any answers , they are baffled as they never come across a lad so young. He is now booked in to have a biopsy on Tuesday. As you can imagine im going out of my mind with worry .

    Have you gotten an answer that can help you with your problem yet. When the prostate is swollen it only means the prostate is starving. The prostate needs a few things in the body so it doesn't get enlarge. It means your son needs to get the proper things in his body for the prostate to shrink. It's pretty simple but of course no one will tell you that. There are a few things the body needs. Zinc, selenium and I can't remember everything.

    I am taking care of my father 95 yrs old and I bought Proaxil which has the right amount of everything the prostate needs to shrink.

    I hope u got help for ur son already but not I hope my information will be helpful.

    I forgot to say the Proaxil did shrink my fathers prostate after using four bottles. I bought a package of six and only had to use four. 95 and prostate normal. And I continue to feed him with the food that has all the things to keep his prostate normal. Regular food.

    Hi Helen! I am a young man who sufferered from an enlarged prostate since I was eighteen. I am now twenty two, and haven't had relief from my condition. I have had a scope up , to see if my prostate was cancerous and it wasn't. Its been miserable dealing with the urination frequency, and other "issues" The only thing that helps somewhat is an electronic prostate massager, but its a temporary fix. Glad to know another young person has the same condition.

    Hello Helen. I am 23yrs old with the same exact condition. Haven’t checked yet. I found a strict vegetarian diet helped a little however there are still other problems persisting. Is there any update?

      Is it confirmed cancer?  Is it a problem you've had for an extended period of time?  I'm 28 and just started having symptoms (difficulty urinating, frequently have to go at night, no pain).  Its felt like the symptoms have come out of nowhere, which seems odd for cancer unless its super fast growing.  I also issues with this like 6 months ago, but they went away on its own, which also seems un-cancerlike.   I've looked at a bunch of sites comparing prostatitis vs cancer, and I can't make heads or tails of it.  It seems like they basically have the same symptoms.

    Hello Helen.  I was going through some of the post and came across your post.  I know it has been some time but how is your son doing Were they about to get the tumor.  For a man of 22 he should not have had that problem.  Did they say why this happen.  Hope all is well  God bless  Ken
