Is it possible for the prostate to have an effect on bowel movements (ie needing to go very suddenly) or is it only linaked to the bladder and urination?
Many thanks
A would be detectable easily by a GP or urologist. B would be more likely to lead to blood in the stools than constipation. C would have other symptoms like lower limb paralysis or numbness. All would usually be evidenced by a high PSA reading.
The nost common cause of constipation is dehydration. A common cause of loose stools and urgency is IBS and foid intolerance although there are many other causes.
Best to see a GP to discuss.
