Patient's question:
I always have a bit of urine, especially at night, going to the toilet every once in a while. The doctor said I have benign prostatic hyperplasia, so I'd like to ask how does an enlarged prostate come about?Doctor's answer:
The causes of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) may be one or several. If prostatitis is not completely resolved, or if urethritis, cystitis, or orchitis occurs, it can lead to congestion and enlargement of prostate tissue. Excessive sexual activity and intercourse can also cause BPH. Lack of physical exercise, low mood, prolonged urination, and an unreasonable dietary structure are also reasons for the recurrence of prostate cancer. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
