Patient's question:
Hello! I might have benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Could you please tell me: What are the specific symptoms of BPH?Doctor's answer:
1. Mild hyperplasia does not require treatment. Prostate hyperplasia can be stabilized. TCM syndrome differentiation and targeted treatment are applied. Significant changes have occurred in the treatment methods for benign prostatic hyperplasia. In the past, Western medicine was commonly used, primarily targeting symptoms caused by urinary obstruction, such as frequent urination and difficulty urinating. For example, transurethral laser therapy, microwave, and radiofrequency methods were used. However, these methods only treat the symptoms and not the root cause of prostate hyperplasia, making it prone to recurrence. Generally, the treatment process is slow, and recurrence is common after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid spicy foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
