DR. DONOHUE
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My doctor tells me I have a large prostate gland. I am 63. He didn't tell me what to do for it, but he said to return when I have symptoms. What symptoms? Give me a hand, will you? -- D.M. ANSWER: An enlarged prostate gland is every man's fate. By age 60, 50 percent have one; by age 85, more than 90 percent have one.
