Patient's question:
Actually, it wasn't very serious at first. It was just that every time I urinated, I felt a bit of resistance. Recently, I've noticed the situation is getting worse. Sometimes the urine flow is very thin, and urination is quite difficult, with a bit of pain. After checking at the hospital, the doctor said it's benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). I'm asking: How should one be diagnosed and treated for benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are generally prescribed Prazosin tablets for medication. Currently, you are not experiencing significant effects, which could be due to further progression of fibrosis, leading to reduced medication efficacy. You may consider trying traditional Chinese medicine. If the results are still unsatisfactory, surgical treatment is still recommended. BPH can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan, use medication appropriately, and avoid prolonged sitting or riding. Pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
