"Why worry about my prostate health now?" you might ask. Some experts
believe that EVERY man will develop some degree of prostate cancer if he lives long enough.
Autopsy studies have shown microscopic evidence of prostate cancer in
15-30% of men over the age of 50 and in 60-70% of men who reach age
80.
But don't let that statistic scare you. The reality is that fewer men
are dying from prostate cancer than ever before.
And the next generation's risk is decreasing all the time. New statistics tell us
that a male born today has a 17% chance of being diagnosed with prostate
cancer at some time in his life, but just a 3% chance of dying from
the disease.
Part of the reason for today's significant decrease in the
death rate from prostate cancer is that more men than ever have gotten SERIOUS about
having their PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) levels
checked on a regular basis.
HAVE YOU?
In THE 2009 JOHNS HOPKINS PROSTATE DISORDERS WHITE PAPER, you'll
discover just how incredibly important PSA testing is.
You'll
learn...
- that an elevated PSA is the single best predictor of
the presence of prostate cancer.
- that PSA testing detects
prostate cancer about 5 to 10 years earlier than digital rectal
exams.
- that most cancers detected with PSA testing are
curable.
- that 30-50% of cancers detected by PSA screening
would never have become apparent otherwise.
- and that regularly
scheduled PSA testing virtually eliminates the diagnosis of advanced
prostate cancer.
You'll also learn...
- why a "normal" PSA level may not
really be normal.
- the four factors, other than prostate cancer, that
can cause a high PSA reading.
- how obesity can mask a rising PSA level -- a change that could mean missing this key indicator of prostate cancer.
- the most common reason for a
false-positive result on a PSA test.
- why a PSA level of 4.0 is NOT a
magic number that separates healthy men from those who might have
cancer...
...and much, much more essential prostate health information to help you take control of your health now, and act from a place of knowledge rather than myths or hearsay.

Why Johns Hopkins? What better place to rely upon for cutting-edge advice and information on your prostate health than Johns Hopkins Hospital, which has been a pioneer in
advancing medical knowledge for over a century. Here are just a few significant examples of the many prostate health breakthroughs that have taken place at Johns Hopkins...
- In 1996, Johns Hopkins researchers mapped the first specific prostate cancer gene to chromosome 1.
- Radical prostatectomy was developed at Johns Hopkins at the beginning of the 20th century. In 1982, a "nerve-sparing" technique by Johns Hopkins urologist Patrick Walsh, M.D. significantly reduced the likelihood that a man would experience erectile dysfunction or urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy.
- Alan Partin, a Johns Hopkins surgeon, developed the Partin tables that help doctors predict whether cancer is confined to the prostate or has spread to adjacent tissue, seminal vesicles, or lymph nodes.
- Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a way to determine which men are good candidates for the treatment known as "watchful waiting."
- In 2005, doctors at Johns Hopkins identified three clinical factors that identify a man's risk of dying from prostate cancer after a "biochemical recurrence" -- a rising PSA after treatment -- information that, for the first time, offered doctors a tool they can use to determine which men need treatment for their recurrence and which men are at a relatively low risk of dying of their disease and can simply be closely monitored.
IMPORTANT TREATMENT OPTION
Based on solid evidence Johns Hopkins researchers have developed the criteria to determine which men are good candidates for active surveillance. You'll find this criteria discussed in the "Choosing a Prostate Cancer Treatment" section of this year's White Paper.
The bottom line: At last, Johns Hopkins has given men who have early prostate cancer and who meet this criteria sound reason to defer costly, possibly dangerous treatment, until it is clear they really need it. In the confusing tangle of information that goes into making decisions about this very common cancer, there is one clear thread to follow: Working closely with your doctor you can take time to assess your options before you choose any prostate cancer treatment which can have a significant impact on your quality of life.
You want to make the best decision possible, acting from knowledge gained by the accurate, comprehensive and thorough Johns Hopkins White Paper: Prostate Disorders 2009.
