Facing Your Prostate Biopsy Fears
So you’ve been scheduled for what will likely be a 30 minute procedure - the prostate biopsy. While it’s likely you have better, more fun alternatives don’t worry. Prostate biopsy side effects are few. One of the most common being prostate biopsy bleeding in the form of blood in your urine. Now you can expect your doctor, with the help of an assistant, to use guided ultrasound to extract core samples of your prostate gland. For increased diagnostic accuracy enough cores have to be obtained using an ultra thin needle to find cancer cells. Is it likely to be uncomfortable? Perhaps. But you want to grit your teeth and go for it. It does not take that long and the test results are certainly worth having.
