A member asked:
At annual exam do you usually get your prostate checked?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Age related: If you are over 50, checking the prostate should be a routine part of a physical examination. It is slightly uncomfortable, a bit embarrasing, but useful so done worry about it. You of course will be checked if you have symptoms related to urinary flow.
