Patient's question:
Male, 39 years old, has been running to and from hospitals many times, but the effect is always not obvious, and the condition has been recurring. Please ask: Can benign prostatic hyperplasia be somewhat relieved?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is itself an aging phenomenon. Since it is an aging phenomenon, it is something that we cannot reverse abruptly. We cannot control time. Therefore, when the prostate enlarges but does not affect urination, it cannot be called a disease. Only when the prostate enlargement leads to urinary obstruction can it be considered a disease. So, it's not accurate to say whether it can be relieved or not. It is inherently an aging phenomenon, just like how our hair turns white as we age and wrinkles increase as we grow older. In reality, this is something that cannot be controlled. However, although we cannot reverse the progression of prostate hyperplasia, we can treat the urinary symptoms and difficulties it causes.
