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. Could this be due to benign prostatic hyperplasia? If so, please ask: How can benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia, it is necessary to rule out neurogenic bladder (retention type), and a thorough urodynamic examination should be performed. Residual urine needs to be measured. If it is greater than 60 ML, surgical treatment (TUR-P) is recommended; if it is less than 60 ML, conservative treatment is recommended. Medications such as finasteride (Proscar), alfuzosin, and antibiotics should be taken. Prostate enlargement can be relieved, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recur after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's treatment, proper medication, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet during treatment are essential. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
