How should benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated?

Patient's question:

Prostate hyperplasia diagnosed last year, I haven't had any obvious symptoms during that time. Recently, I've been feeling abdominal fullness, and urination has been intermittent. I always wake up at night, and during the day, I also feel frequent urination and urgency. Does this mean my condition has become serious? Please ask: How should I treat benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Doctor's answer:

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), in the early stages, can be treated by avoiding alcohol and taking anti-prostatic hyperplasia medications such as finasteride and Proscar. If the medication treatment is not effective, it is best to promptly undergo surgical procedures like transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or prostatectomy. BPH can be stabilized through treatment, but the treatment period is generally long, and relapse is prone to occur after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor during treatment, use medications appropriately, and avoid prolonged sitting or riding. Additionally, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
