September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, so we figured it was time to have a conversation about something a lot of men would rather not talk about: their prostates.

To help, longtime Northshore urologist Dr. Sunhil Purohit visits "Northshore Healthbeat" -- the official podcast of St. Tammany Health System -- to separate prostate fact from fiction, talk about warning signs and screening, and explain how today’s advances are changing the way we diagnose and treat prostate conditions. From prostate cancer to enlarged prostates – and even a leading-edge treatment called Aquablation – Dr. Purohit offers plenty of reasons for men (and the people who care about them) to listen.

Tune in now at all major podcast platforms, including those listed below. Your prostate will thank you.

Episodes of “Northshore Healthbeat” can also be found in the electronic newsroom at StTammany.health, alongside the health system’s myriad other publications and programs.

“Northshore Healthbeat” is a public affairs podcast dedicated to local healthcare issues and happenings, featuring interviews with local care providers, patients and community stakeholders.
