- UltrasoundChances are, you’ve had a test that raises a suspicion of cancer in your prostate. You’re now scheduled for a prostate ultrasound and prostate biopsy. Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the prostate gland. These help guide the doctor in taking samples of tissue (biopsies) from the prostate. The samples are then checked for cancer cells.
- VasectomyA vasectomy is a surgical procedure that makes a man sterile (unable to father a child). It is safe, simple, and effective. The no-scalpel procedure is done without incisions or stitches. Healing is often faster than with the traditional method. Before having a vasectomy, talk to your partner. Any vasectomy should be considered permanent. You must be positive that you won’t want children in the future.
