Patient's question:
Since I got pregnant, from the time the child was born until now, my husband and I have not had any intimate relationship. He studies in a place far away, so he doesn't come home often. But every time he comes home, it seems like he is avoiding real intimate life. Although I have never actively suggested it to him, his behavior still puzzles me. Later, I asked him what was going on.Doctor's answer:
The main manifestations of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are progressive urinary difficulties, frequent urination, urinary urgency, and a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying. In very rare cases, a decrease in libido may also occur. The exact cause of BPH has not yet been determined, and it typically occurs in middle-aged men. The incidence of BPH increases annually after the age of 40. By the age of 51 to 60, 50% of men experience pathological BPH, and by the age of 90, 90% of men have developed BPH. The treatment of BPH includes close observation, self-regulation, medication, surgery, and minimally invasive treatments.
