Patient's question:
This week, I've been feeling like I can't fully empty my bladder when urinating, and it seems like I lack strength when urinating. The stream is very thin, and I even feel as if I can't urinate properly. Could this be due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)? If so, please ask: How is BPH treated?Doctor's answer:
Prostate Hyperplasia Prostate hyperplasia is a common disease among elderly men, with onset typically occurring after the age of 50. As age increases, the incidence rate gradually declines, making it a frequent condition in urology. Treating prostate hyperplasia is a long-term process. Once diagnosed, patients must follow their doctor's advice to take medication and absolutely cannot stop or reduce the dosage on their own. Regular follow-up examinations should be conducted to adjust the treatment plan in a timely manner based on the condition.
