    Connecting Hair Loss and Enlarged Prostate?

    Powerful Patient

    Date / Time:

    Category: Health

    Call-in Number: (347) 237-4358


    Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is the age-related overgrowth of specific prostate tissues, which often progresses to enlargement of the prostate. An enlarged prostate can constrict the urethra, causing various lower urinary tract symptoms. More than half of men in their sixties and as many as 90 percent in their seventies and eighties have some BPH symptoms, according to The National Kidney and Urologic Diseases Information Clearinghouse (NKUDIC). There may be a connection between common hair loss and risk of BPH. Joyce talks with Andy Goren, President of PharmaGenoma and HairDX, about the genetic research that is pointing to this connection.

    A Prescription for Love and Loss

    Dr. Owen Stanley Surman, an internationally recognized psychiatrist, shares his personal journey through his wife's illness, both as a doctor and as a husband. When a loved one dies, we lose the immediacy of a shared identity. What lies ahead? Was it all a dream? Even medical professionals, who apply scientific thinking to the tragedy of life's end, must bace the emptiness of losing a patient or a family member.

    Tai Chi for all - even in a wheelchair

    Two doctors share their experience using Tai Chi to help people maximize their health: Dr. Peter Wayne of Harvard University and Dr. Zibin Guo of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. Studies overwhelmingly point to regular physical exercise as the crucial medicine for what ails Americans. Physicians have a hard time convincing even healthy patients to take action, but it’s a much harder sell for those with limited movement caused by physical disabilities. Dr. Guo adapted the ancient Chinese martial arts, for the use of people with mobility limitations. His method is in widespread use in China. Dr. Wayne explains how he uses Tai Chi to ease the symptoms of a number of medical conditions, especially among women.
