Does BPH require surgery?

Patient's question:

Recurrent hematuria, checked at the hospital, diagnosed as benign prostatic hyperplasia. The doctor said the treatment options are either medication or surgery? Hello, can the strict treatment completely restore? Is the surgical risk high?

Doctor's answer:

Prostate enlargement does not necessarily require surgical treatment. Medications such as Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pills can be used for treatment. If the condition is severe or interferes with urination, surgery may be necessary. You can visit the urology department of a hospital for follow-up examination and avoid overwork. Do not drink beer, drink more water, urinate more frequently, and do not hold urine. If symptoms such as frequent urination and urine retention are severe, you can go to a regular hospital's urology department for follow-up examination to clarify the condition and undergo minimally invasive treatments such as laser ablation.
