Patient's question:
I feel very uncomfortable in my private area, and that feeling cannot be described. It affects my work and life very much, and it's very troublesome. What factors contribute to the formation of benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is one of the important inflammatory conditions causing intestinal obstruction in the male bladder neck. It is caused by elevated levels of sex hormones, neuroendocrine disorders, and dietary factors as its recurrent causes. It is a urinary tract obstruction disease induced by mechanical factors. In the early stages of recurrence, it often manifests as frequent urination, urinary urgency, hesitancy during urination, difficulty urinating, and dribbling at the end of urination. Although patients with prostate hyperplasia who only have glandular enlargement without lower urinary tract symptoms such as bladder outlet obstruction may not require treatment, the potential harm must not be overlooked. It is essential to seek medical attention promptly for guidance and treatment, as effective treatment should prevent the occurrence of long-term complications.There are many treatment methods for prostate hyperplasia, but the choice of treatment depends on the individual patient's condition. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment once symptoms appear.
