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). What are the dangers of BPH?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia has many hazards: Prostate diseases can damage the urethra, control the urethra leading to bladder and intestinal obstruction, resulting in various urination difficulties, causing urethritis, kidney hydronephrosis, and chronic kidney failure. Prostate diseases can impair the excitability of the sexual nerves, leading to symptoms such as premature ejaculation and nocturnal emissions. In more severe cases, it can even lead to complete loss of sexual function. If you have prostate hyperplasia, it is important to seek timely examination and treatment at a professional and reputable urological hospital.
