Why does the prostate gland enlarge?

Patient's question:

What is benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and how should someone my age be treated if they develop it?

Doctor's answer:

Prostate hyperplasia is generally more common in older individuals. Since you are not yet considered old, the recurrence is most likely due to irritation from prostatitis. Therefore, it is necessary to have a routine examination of prostatic fluid and control the frequency of sexual activity. Try to minimize the time of prostate congestion. If you experience difficulty urinating, you can consider taking many heat-clearing, diuretic, and anti-inflammatory drugs, combined with antibiotics for treatment. Avoid sitting for long periods and refrain from smoking and drinking beer.
