Patient's question:
Hello, I have been experiencing lower abdominal discomfort and frequent urination recently. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). How should I treat BPH?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, a comprehensive analysis suggests that your condition may be caused by an infectious transmission of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and urinary system issues (stones), leading to symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, incomplete emptying, hesitancy, dribbling, urinary retention, and pain from bladder fullness. The treatment for BPH involves the use of Finasteride, which relaxes the smooth muscles of the prostate and alleviates symptoms. However, it is essential to follow standardized (anti-inflammatory) treatment under the guidance of a doctor and undergo regular follow-up examinations. Due to the inability to conduct a face-to-face assessment and fully understand the condition, further diagnostic clarification is necessary. You should visit a private top-tier hospital for urological and gynecological examinations. Based on your symptoms and physical signs, the doctor will recommend clinical diagnostic tests (such as blood, urine, and stool tests, ultrasound, cystoscopy, prostatic fluid culture, and drug sensitivity tests) to identify the underlying cause. After determining the cause, targeted treatment can be administered.
