Patient's question:
I once suffered from prostatitis. I went to the hospital for it, took medication, and it got better. It hasn't recurred since then. Recently, I had a physical examination at the hospital and was told I have prostate calcification. What causes prostate calcification?Doctor's answer:
The cause of benign prostatic hyperplasia is currently believed to be related to endocrine imbalance and endocrine disorders, with an increase in male hormones. For its treatment, common clinical diagnostic methods include hormone therapy, radiotherapy, and transurethral resection surgery. For elderly patients with poor health conditions who cannot tolerate prostatectomy, there is also a certain therapeutic effect. The condition of prostate calcification tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to actively seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals, considering treatment options based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
