Patient's question:
Male, 30 years old, mental state not very good recently, don't know what's wrong. Please ask: What is the problem of benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is what the general public often refers to as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). As men age, it is a common issue that most may encounter. From a fibrosis perspective, it involves the continuous increase in the number of prostate cells and the extracellular matrix, leading to a reduction in the overall volume of the prostate. Our urethra actually passes through the prostate. When the prostate enlarges, it inevitably compresses the urethra, increasing urinary resistance. This significantly impacts male urination and can lead to very serious consequences.
