Patient's question:
What medications are used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)? How can benign prostatic hyperplasia be effectively treated? What are the dangers of benign prostatic hyperplasia? How can the treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia be most effective?Doctor's answer:
Prostate enlargement is a common disease in middle-aged and elderly men, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia. The fibrotic gland is located in the bladder neck, causing urinary tract obstruction, leading to frequent urination and difficulty urinating. The exact cause is unclear, but it is currently believed that it may be related to endocrine disorders caused by an imbalance in sex hormones. Treatment depends on the specific condition. If the symptoms are mild, it is best to choose traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy. If the condition is severe, it is best to opt for surgical removal, which is better. The condition of prostate enlargement tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to actively seek medical treatment in professional and regular hospitals and consider treatment based on detailed examination results.
