What causes benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Patient's question:

This year has already started, and my glans has been experiencing a burning sensation. Wearing pants also feels very irritating and uncomfortable, even my groin feels uncomfortable, even my groin which is not often touched.

Doctor's answer:

Lack of physical exercise: Due to insufficient exercise, prolonged sitting and minimal movement can lead to chronic congestion of the prostate, stimulating fibrosis. Additionally, lack of exercise makes arteries more prone to hardening, and poor local blood circulation in the prostate can result in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). BPH is one of the most common conditions among elderly men. It is often caused by fibrosis of the transition zone, leading to symptoms such as frequent urination and progressive urinary difficulties. Diagnosis is typically based on digital rectal examination, ultrasound, and other methods.
