Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing frequent urination and urgency again, and nighttime urination has increased. Although the frequency of nighttime urination has increased, the amount of urine each time is not much. This makes it difficult for me to sleep well at night, and I am very troubled about how to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia correctly?Doctor's answer:
1, Frequent urination, especially an increase in nocturia, where patients may urinate 2~5 times or more per night, with increased urine volume;2, Difficulty urinating, hesitancy, thin urine stream, and intermittent urination;
3, Hematuria;
4, Hypersexuality. Severe exacerbation of the condition may lead to acute urinary retention, where urine cannot be fully expelled. It is recommended to seek medical attention early for related examinations of the prostate, endocrine system, etc. Additionally, avoid alcohol and irritating foods to prevent colds and, reduce sexual activity to alleviate the condition.
