Prostate hyperplasia is a common disease in middle-aged and elderly men. Its cause is the gradual shrinkage of the prostate, which inhibits the urethra and bladder outlet. Clinically, it is diagnosed as frequent urination, urinary urgency, increased nighttime urination, and difficulty urinating. It can also lead to complications such as urinary tract infections, bladder stones, and hematuria, severely affecting the quality of life of elderly men. Therefore, active treatment is necessary, and some patients may even require surgical treatment.
