Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is also a systemic destructive disease. Due to poor excretion, it severely interferes with deep sleep and daily life. In the early stages, it can manifest as frequent urination and nocturia. As it progresses, it may show symptoms such as prolonged urination hesitation and a split urine stream. If it continues to develop, it can lead to incontinence. It is recommended to take Pulegan tablets under the guidance of a local doctor, along with appropriate antibiotic treatment for anti-inflammatory purposes. Quit smoking and alcohol, avoid spicy foods, and increase the frequency of sexual activity. Prostate hyperplasia tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is crucial to seek professional and reputable medical treatment immediately, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, it is important to moderate sexual activity, maintain a positive mood, and wish all patients a speedy recovery.
