                USG:

On going through the report,the
doctor advised further  test for TRUS.
I underwent TRUS on 28.12.2015 and the report is as under-
         Prostrate Gland

        asymmetrical enlargement of central zones with left being bigger than right.                              Peripheral zones appear to be normal. No focal lesion seen. Mild prostatic region shows a small cyst-    0.8x0.7cm in size-suggesting prostatic Utricle cyst. Prostrate measures 5.4x3.8cm.

Both seminal vesicles appear to be enlarged with heterogenous    echopatter..Small cystic changes are noted in both.

The report indicates that you have an enlarged prostate, compatible with benign prostatic hyperplasia, but no evidence of prostate cancer.
