Patient's question:
I have a curved urinary tract and my penis is also tilted to the left. I have a history of sexual activity. I'm a bit busy with work and haven't had a thorough examination. If I have benign prostatic hyperplasia, what is the best way to treat it?Doctor's answer:
Your symptoms are related to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The main manifestations of BPH are progressive urinary difficulties, frequent urination, urinary urgency, and a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying. In very rare cases, a decrease in libido may also occur. The exact cause of BPH has not yet been determined, but it generally affects middle-aged men. The incidence of BPH increases annually after the age of 40. By the age of 51 to 60, 50% of men experience pathological BPH, and by the age of 90, 90% of men have developed BPH.Recommendation: The treatment of BPH includes careful observation, self-regulation, medication, surgery, and minimally invasive treatments. If there are no urinary difficulties, treatment may not be necessary.
