Patient's question:
Recently, I experienced difficulty urinating, a delay in urination, a thin stream of urine, and dribbling urine. This month, I went to a hospital and was diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). How should benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated?Doctor's answer:
Currently, the only method to cure benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is surgical treatment. It is recommended to take good care of your daily life, such as: exercising, avoiding prolonged sitting and holding urine, drinking more water, keeping a relaxed mood, maintaining regular sexual activity, quitting smoking and alcohol, and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. BPH can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to use medications that are appropriate for your symptoms during treatment. Additionally, it is advised to develop good lifestyle habits and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
