If you are a man and are experiencing difficulty while trying to empty your bladder, getting up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, or who has the urgent and sometimes painful need to urinate, your prostate may be trying to send you a message. If you have pain in your private parts, especially after having sex or urination, be sure to consider the possible source of the referred pain as the prostate.

Prostatitis (inflammation and or infection in the prostate) can make a man miserable. Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH), better known as enlarged prostate, affects most men eventually and accounts for one of the most frequent reasons of surgery on men each year. Finally, prostate cancer is one of the leading causes of death in men.

All of these subjects and more are handled deftly by Dr. Morganstern and Dr. Abrahams, who have written a book that is easy to understand and emminently useful. If you are looking for answers and resources this is the book to get. Even if you are already seeing a urologist, you need this book!

If you are having problems with your prostate, or want to learn what to do to prevent them, or are a concerned partner wanting to help and support the man in your life, I highly recommend this book.

As a man who once suffered from untreated prostatitis and middle lobe hypertrophy, I wholeheartedly endorse this book. It may save your sanity and could certainly save your life.

This book is very well written. I feel that every man approaching 50 should read this and be informed. I learned things form this book I never even thought about or knew. Excellent Book!

I am a layman that has studied the thyroid for many years. Some of the information that she presents is false, a novice would be easily misled on some very inportant guidance. On p. 3 she correctly states that iodine deficiency can cause a lot of the thyroid problems, but on pg. 85 she states that Asian women who move to Ca. are at a higher risk because they are now in a iodine rich diet. Completely false. They moved to a area that is extremely low in iodine. In the U.S. the average intake is under 100 mcg. per day, verses 13 mg. in Japan. Japan has the lowest thyroid and breast cancer in the world.
