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 (BPH), 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 incomplete emptying of the bladder. In very rare cases, a decrease in libido may also occur. The exact cause of BPH has not yet been determined. It generally occurs in middle-aged men, with the incidence rate increasing annually after the age of 40. Between the ages of 51 and 60, 50% of men experience pathological BPH, and by the age of 90, 90% of men have developed BPH.Recommendations:
Treatment for BPH includes careful observation, self-regulation, medication, surgical treatment, and minimally invasive therapy. If there are no urinary difficulties, treatment may not be necessary.
