Which treatment is better for improving benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Patient's question:

Go to check and confirm the diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia. During this period, I haven't had any obvious symptoms. Recently, I feel my abdomen is full, and urination is intermittent. I always wake up at night, and during the day, I also feel frequent urination and urgency. Does this mean my condition is serious? Please ask: Which treatment is better for improving benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, prostatic hyperplasia is a common and frequently occurring disease in middle-aged and elderly men. There are drug treatments available, in addition to surgical treatments. Generally, drug treatment is considered first. If complications such as urinary retention, recurrent bladder stones, continuously increasing residual urine, or hydronephrosis occur again, surgery can be considered.
As for the hospital, you can go to your municipal hospital, as surgical techniques are currently quite mature. For patients with prostatic hyperplasia, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
