Patient's question:
I have been sick for a while. Recently, I often have a frequent urge to urinate, urinate frequently, and even see blood in my urine. It feels very painful. I would like to ask, under normal circumstances, how is the treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia usually effective?Doctor's answer:
The prostate is an important organ in the male reproductive system. The prostatic fluid it produces is also a major component of semen, and it plays a role in nourishing sperm and facilitating the fertilization of the egg. However, the prostate is also a "trouble spot" for most men, and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is gradually expanding in nature. Clinical diagnosis confirms that all men over the age of 55 have varying degrees of BPH. Therefore, it is a common and often overlooked condition in men.1. Mild hyperplasia does not require treatment.
2. Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine and estrogen: Oral administration of Wenglitong and ethinyl estradiol.
3. In cases of acute urinary retention, acupuncture can be applied to points such as Guanyuan, Qihai, Sanyinjiao, and Yanglingquan. Catheterization should be performed to relieve urinary retention, and the catheter should be retained to gradually empty the bladder.
