Prostate enlargement: symptoms, causes, and cures
|
Posted By: Joel Savage on June 30, 2025 After the age of forty, the male prostate gland naturally enlarges; this condition is called benign prostatic hyperplasia or benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH). Many urination-related symptoms may result from this rise, and, additionally, you can get more severe renal and bladder issues. Prostate adenoma can be effectively treated with a variety of methods, such as medication and surgery. Transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR of the prostate) is the most common type of prostate surgery. Causes of an enlarged prostate The prostate is a nut-shaped gland located immediately after the neck of the bladder. Its main function is to produce a fluid that protects and enriches sperm. As a man ages, the prostate gland gradually increases. It usually begins after the age of 40 and is thought to be caused by hormonal changes. This increase can cause difficulty urinating and can lead to problems with the bladder and kidneys. The increase occurs as a result of hyperplasia (an increase in the number of cells) and hypertrophy (an increase in cell size). An enlarged prostate does not cause prostate cancer. However, prostate cancer can occur in men with an enlarged prostate. Signs and symptoms As the prostate gland gets larger, it narrows the urethra (the tube that drains urine from the bladder) and can interfere with the outflow of urine. This can lead to problems with urination, such as: Increased urge to urinate Uncontrollable urge to urinate Nocturia—the need to get up often at night to urinate Difficulty starting urine flow (indecisiveness) Poor urine flow—weak flow or stop/start of flow Dribbling of urine—especially at the end of urination Incomplete emptying of the bladder. The term LUTs (lower urinary tract symptoms) is commonly used to refer to a range of urinary symptoms associated with BPH. Continue further: https://juskosave.blogspot.com/2025/06/pro...
