Prostate cyst, slightly enlarged prostate, with calcification spots - what should be done?

Patient's question:

Physical examination revealed prostatic cysts, slightly enlarged prostate, and calcification spots. In the past, I took traditional Chinese medicine to treat prostatitis. There are no significant symptoms.

Doctor's answer:

Prostate cysts are similar to kidney cysts. If the cysts grow very large and compress the kidney tissue, leading to a gradual decline in kidney function, measures must be taken. The cysts contain a watery substance, and sometimes they are drained under the guidance of an ultrasound. Alternatively, surgery may be performed to remove them. Prostate cysts are usually very small and generally do not cause significant issues. If they grow larger, measures should still be taken. It is recommended to follow the doctor's advice.
