Enlarged Prostate
Posted: 04-23-07 11:57am

I am 34 years old and found out on Friday that I have an enlarged prostate with conformation of blood in my urine. I am awaiting a full urine analysis. My doc seemed a bit dumbfounded by the situation over all and didn't give me much information. Should I be proactive and get in touch with a urologist? Confused

You can never be too safe, so you certainly could see a urologist if you want. Blood in urine and an enlarged prostate are often just signs of an infection, so hopefully it's a simple infection that won't give you any real trouble. A lot of times, the infection just clears up on its own and the problem goes away before the doctor can even confirm exactly what it was.
