The regulation principles for individuals with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are based on a light, easily digestible diet. It is recommended to consume more vegetables and fruits while minimizing spicy and stimulating foods. Quitting smoking and alcohol consumption can help increase blood flow to the prostate. If possible, consuming more pumpkin seeds is beneficial, and tomatoes should be eaten after being cooked with eggs. Maintain a normal sex life according to personal circumstances, avoiding both excessive indulgence and abstinence. Avoid holding urine for long periods and promptly treat urinary tract infections.
