Does benign prostatic hyperplasia affect bowel movements?

Patient's question:

Does benign prostatic hyperplasia interfere with defecation? Having 2 to 3 bowel movements every morning, loose stools, poor quality of deep sleep.

Doctor's answer:

I think you might be experiencing symptoms of colitis again. I suggest you go to the hospital for a colonoscopy to check it carefully. If it is confirmed to be colitis, please consult a traditional Chinese medicine doctor for symptomatic treatment. The daily treatment for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia is mainly symptomatic medication. Patients can take many oral medications, supplement with various vitamins, and pay attention to self-care, proper diet, and avoid cold foods.
