Dr Nor Azhari shares on Berita Harian on the topic of prostate cancer, and offers reasons why prostate cancer is the most common cancer among Singaporean men.

Dr. Azhari, on the TV show “Sembang Sihat,” emphasized the importance of not holding in urine to maintain bladder health. He warned against over-stretching the bladder, which can lead to urine retention. Dr. Azhari suggested adjusting water intake based on job demands to avoid potential issues.

He explained the urinary system’s process, starting from the kidneys producing urine to its storage in the bladder before disposal. Dr. Azhari highlighted the higher risk of UTIs in females who hold in urine due to their shorter urethra, allowing bacteria to enter the bladder.

Dr Azhari also discussed urine color variations as potential indicators of health concerns and addressed incontinence issues related to different health conditions and age groups, especially in women. He recommended preventive measures.

In conclusion, Dr. Azhari cautioned that urinary problems could be symptoms of various diseases. If experiencing discomfort or abnormalities, it is crucial to consult a doctor promptly rather than attempting self-treatment with unproven remedies.
