Patient's question:
I am 44 years old this year. Due to frequent nighttime urination, I went to the hospital for a thorough physical examination. The detailed examination revealed benign prostatic hyperplasia. I would like to understand how to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia to achieve a one-time cure?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis does not generally affect fertility as long as it does not significantly impact ejaculation. However, it is recommended to seek treatment as soon as possible. Non-surgical treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), physical therapy, and lifestyle therapy are all viable options for patients with BPH. It is advised to seek treatment at a reputable urological hospital, where experts can develop a tailored treatment plan based on your condition, which can be effective in the short term. BPH can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and it tends to recur after treatment. Therefore, medication should be used symptomatically during the treatment.
