Prostate size 30×44×23, is it benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Patient's question:

Prostate size 30×44×23, is it benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Doctor's answer:

Symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia:
(1) Frequent urination, increased nocturia
Frequent urination is an early symptom, with an increase in the number of nighttime urinations, but each time the amount of urine is not significant. After the compensatory failure of the detrusor muscle of the bladder, chronic urinary retention occurs, reducing the effective capacity of the bladder and shortening the interval between urinations. If accompanied by bladder stones or infection, the frequency of urination becomes even more pronounced, accompanied by dysuria.
(2) Urgency, incontinence
In cases of lower urinary tract obstruction, 50% to 80% of patients experience urgency or urge incontinence.
