Patient's question:
Today's check revealed benign prostatic hyperplasia. What are the causes of benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Long-term suffering from certain chronic diseases, especially those related to endocrine or metabolic disorders, as well as those who have been overworked for a long time or lack proper nutrition, can all lead to the weakening of various organ functions in the body, the decline of endocrine system function, and disruptions in the metabolism of sex hormones, all of which may contribute to benign prostatic hyperplasia. Long-term alcohol consumption, a diet high in spicy, acidic, or cold foods, frequent or severe exposure to cold, chill, or dampness, excessive sexual desire or overly frequent sexual activity, and obesity are also risk factors.
