What is an Enlarged Prostate?
BPH occurs when the prostate gland enlarges, leading to urinary issues such as frequent urination, weak urine flow, or difficulty starting urination. Although BPH is not cancerous, it can significantly impact your daily life.
What symptoms might an enlarged prostate cause?
Frequent need to urinate, especially at night
Difficulty starting urination
Weak or interrupted urine stream
Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying
Urgency to urinate
How is an Enlarged Prostate Diagnosed?
Diagnosis typically involves a digital rectal exam (DRE), urine tests, and possibly a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test to rule out prostate cancer.
What treatment do I need for an enlarged prostate?
Treatment options include:
Medication: To relax the muscles of the prostate and bladder or to shrink the prostate.
Minimally Invasive Procedures: Such as Rezum or UroLift, to relieve obstruction.
Surgical Options: Including TURP (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate) or HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate) for more severe cases.
