Patient's question:
Ultrasound revealed benign prostatic hyperplasia measuring 3.34.53.4, with a clear prostate contour, asymmetrical shape, and uneven internal echo arrangement. MRI findings: benign prostatic hyperplasia with fusion, clinical diagnosis. I felt very anxious seeing the asymmetry and because the report was submitted too late, I didn't rush to find a doctor.Doctor's answer:
Currently, your condition is considered to be benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), which may present with symptoms such as incomplete urination and frequent urination. Further PSA testing can be conducted to rule out the possibility of malignancy. It is recommended to avoid anxiety and tension. If symptoms such as frequent urination, increased nocturia, and incomplete urination occur, symptomatic medication can be taken orally to alleviate the condition. Additionally, blood tests can be performed to check PSA levels for further evaluation. For patients with BPH, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive symptomatic treatment promptly and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
