What Chinese herbal medicine is used for benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Patient's question:

I feel that Western medicine is not very good for male problems, as it seems to have easily side effects. What Chinese medicine is good for benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, benign prostatic hyperplasia is mostly considered to be caused by prolonged sitting or excessive sexual activity. In a very small number of cases, it may also be due to recent frequent sexual activity, which may easily lead to symptoms such as frequent urination and incomplete urination. From a TCM perspective, it is mainly considered to be due to some damp-heat accumulation in the lower body. Treatment can also involve taking some TCM herbal formulas that clear damp-heat. Specific medications should be taken according to the doctor's advice. It can also be combined with TCM moxibustion treatment.
