What methods are effective for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia?

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 is very thin, and urination is quite difficult. It also a bit painful. I would like to ask: What methods are effective for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Doctor's answer:

BPH can be treated with different methods depending on the condition. BPH Stage I: First, symptoms such as frequent urination, difficulty urinating, a sense of incomplete urination, residual urine (but not exceeding 50 milliliters), increased nocturia, and getting into bed to sleep at least 4-5 times per night, interfering with deep sleep, may occur. Hormonal therapy and symptomatic treatment can be adopted. BPH Stage II: Nocturia becomes even more frequent, the urine stream becomes thinner, urination becomes weak, the becomes shorter, and the amount of residual urine increases (less than 100 milliliters). At this stage, if there is a second-order neuron infection or calculus, symptoms such as urgency and dysuria, hematuria may occur, and in severe cases, acute urinary retention may recur.
