Prostate enlargement what to check when going to the hospital

Patient's question:

This week, I've been feeling like I can't fully empty my bladder when urinating, and it seems like I lack strength when urinating. The stream is very thin, and I even feel like I can't urinate properly. Is this condition related to benign prostatic hyperplasia? If so, could you please ask: What tests should be done at the hospital for benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Doctor's answer:

Prostate enlargement is generally treated with medication. If it affects the kidneys, surgical removal of the prostate is necessary. Sexual activity should be moderate—neither excessive nor frigid. A proper diet, balanced nutrition, and controlling the intake of high-fat, high-calorie foods can comprehensively prevent the recurrence of prostate enlargement. Prostate enlargement can be cured, but the treatment process is usually slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor, appropriate medication, and avoiding prolonged sitting or riding are essential. Patients should also pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
