Prostate hyperplasia and difficulty urinating - What should be done?

Patient's question:

Prostate hyperplasia with difficult urination, straining, does it require catheterization for treatment?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your current situation description, it is inferred that the severity of your current urinary obstruction determines whether you need to have a catheter inserted for urination. If you can urinate during the medication treatment period, there is no need to insert a catheter. However, if you cannot urinate, it should be considered to insert a catheter. For patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If treatment is not timely, it will affect your health condition. Therefore, patients need to receive timely symptomatic treatment, and in daily life, it is important to maintain a regular lifestyle and avoid prolonged sitting.
