Patient's question:
Recently, I had intimate relations with my husband, but he always performed poorly. He also often mentions that the pain in his prostate has reappeared. I took him to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said he had benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prescribed some medication for him. My husband has been taking the medication for over a month, but the effect hasn't been very good. Can BPH be cured with medication?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia can push the urethra, leading to frequent urination and urgency. Over time, this can naturally affect normal sexual function. It is important to promptly visit a hospital to check the prostate fluid, which can determine if there is a substantial bacterial infection. If inflammation is ruled out, factors such as stress, staying up late, overexertion, excessive masturbation, and lifestyle changes are directly related. In daily life, it is necessary to quit smoking, limit alcohol consumption, and exercise more. Prostate hyperplasia can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and maintain a light diet, avoiding foods and not smoking or drinking beer. It is hoped that male patients can recover as soon as possible.
