Patient's question:
I have been feeling unwell recently. Later, I went to the hospital for a detailed and thorough examination. The doctor said that my condition is caused by an enlarged prostate. I am currently seeking consultation to explore various treatment options for an enlarged prostate, and I also hope that my condition will improve quickly. What should I eat for an enlarged prostate?Doctor's answer:
In the early stages of benign prostatic hyperplasia, its etiology is often influenced by factors such as frequent sexual activity, chronic prostatitis, prostatic hyperplasia, smoking and alcohol consumption, medications, endocrine imbalances, endocrine disorders, and increased male hormone levels, among others. The early clinical manifestations are commonly seen as follows: 1. Frequent urination, especially an increase in nocturia, where patients may urinate 2 to 5 times or more per night, with increased urine volume; 2. Difficulty urinating, hesitancy, thin urine stream, and intermittent urination; 3. Hematuria.
