What are the hazards of having benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Patient's question:

A while ago, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said I have benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). What are the dangers of BPH?

Doctor's answer:

Prostate hyperplasia has many hazards: Prostate diseases can damage the urethra, control the urethra leading to bladder and intestinal obstruction, resulting in various urination difficulties, causing urethritis, kidney hydronephrosis, and chronic kidney failure. Prostate diseases can impair the excitability of sexual nerves, leading to symptoms such as premature ejaculation and nocturnal emissions. In more severe cases, it may even lead to complete loss of sexual function. If you have prostate hyperplasia, it is important to seek professional and regular medical treatment from a urological hospital. Contrary to consuming spicy foods, a light diet can reduce pressure on the prostate.
