Why does benign prostatic hyperplasia cause hematuria?

Patient's question:

I have benign prostatic hyperplasia, and I recently discovered that I have blood in my urine. Hello doctor, why does benign prostatic hyperplasia cause blood in the urine?

Doctor's answer:

Prostate hyperplasia has reappeared with symptoms of hematuria, which may be related to some damage to the mucosa. It is recommended to go to the urology department of the hospital for a follow-up examination. Based on the degree of fibrosis, appropriate treatment methods will be determined. Under the guidance of a doctor, medications such as Proscar can be taken, or physical therapy can be performed. Drinking more water, urinating frequently, cleaning the urethra, and maintaining a good lifestyle are also important. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery.
