How is benign prostatic hyperplasia treated?

Patient's question:

Last March, I had a check-up for benign prostatic hyperplasia. I didn't receive treatment, and when I had another check-up this year, it was still enlarged. My family members are urging me to get treated. Could you please advise on the methods of treatment?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are multiple causes for prostatitis. For bacterial prostatitis, the main treatment is antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory therapy, followed by symptomatic treatment tailored to different conditions. For non-bacterial prostatitis, physical and rehabilitation treatments are primarily used, supplemented by appropriate therapies based on the patient's specific circumstances. Recalcitrant prostatitis is a chronic form of prostatitis that is difficult to treat and prone to recurrence, requiring special treatment for effective management.
