With benign prostatic hyperplasia, what should I pay attention to?

Patient's question:

Can you tell me what I should pay attention to regarding benign prostatic hyperplasia? I just found out that I have mild benign prostatic hyperplasia. I'm not very familiar with this condition.

Doctor's answer:

Patients with mild benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) should pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life. Mild BPH is often asymptomatic and can be monitored long-term. In daily life, it is advisable to avoid smoking and alcohol, consume less spicy foods, engage in regular physical exercise, prevent exposure to cold, and avoid holding urine. Additionally, it is more important to seek early treatment to prevent BPH from causing physical and mental harm such as pain, urinary difficulties, and sexual dysfunction.
