Urinary symptons with high psa in my 30s
Posted , 5 users are following.
Hi, first time using this forum. Thanks for reading. So, I am 38 years old, and have been experiencing symptoms over the last 4 months, which include frequent urination, penile discharge (I am not sure what this is, but it's watery), and very weak ejaculation. I had never experienced these symptoms before in my life.
I did a number of tests, including urine flow test, CT scan, MRI and several blood and urine tests (which included STDs like chlamydia and gonorrhea). All came back normal or negative, except raised PSA (2.8, done two months ago) and the MRI shows results which seem to be consistent with inflammation of the prostate. My doctor wants to wait a few more weeks to do another PSA test, and thinks this is abacterial chronic prostatitis. But I am not convinced. I can't see anywhere on the internet that CPPS causes almost constant discharge from the penis, and low ejaculation volume and speed.
I am truly terrified. Could you please help?

The MRI would show a lump, or lumps, so it is unlikely to be PC. If you are so concerned I would go back to the Dr.
Good Luck,

I do not know if the above is applicable to you but I would ask my doctor to see a large your prostate is - the normal prostate should be about 20 - 25 grams.
Good luck.

Hi Miguel. This is the right forum. i've had a lot of support and had most of my queries addressed. Penile discharge? You're right, none of us have had this problem ( i speak for my husband, of course). Firstly, do you trust your doctor? If you have any doubt in your mind that something may be amiss, then, you'd better go seek the opinion of another doctor and another , if need be,who'll fully satisfy your needs to answer all your questions. 38 is a young age to have prostate problem, but then again, there are various circumstances that can affect one's health situation. Most urologists adopt a wait and see/observe attitude. My husband and I didn't feel comfortable waiting. We needed our problem addressed immediately. There may be more clear directions from other patients here. Just be resolved to have your concerns answered and have options to be open to. My husband, 78 had PSA of 22 but his condition (swelling of scrotum, both legs and lymph nodes problem) is being addressed with a 3 month hormonal shot, hormonal tabs and urine inducing tabs and alternative medicine supplements and protocols of turmeric, IV C & Essiac & Selenium. Good luck. Trust your guts.
