Patient's question:
An ultrasound revealed benign prostatic hyperplasia. Sometimes, I experience frequent urination, urgency, incomplete urination, and discomfort during urination. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Now, for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the standard medication is usually Prazosin tablets. However, since you are not seeing any significant improvement, it is possible that your fibrosis has further progressed, which is why the medication is not working as well. You could try Chinese herbal medicine as an alternative. If that also doesn’t yield results, surgical treatment is still recommended.I suggest you get a check-up to determine the severity of your BPH. If it is quite severe, early surgical intervention is the best course of treatment. For patients with BPH, timely treatment can help reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it can negatively impact your overall health.
