What is Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia?

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia is a condition where the prostate gland becomes enlarged but is not cancerous. This enlargement can squeeze the urethra, making it hard for urine to pass. It’s a common part of aging in men and can lead to bothersome urinary symptoms like urgency, frequent urination, and weak flow. Though not dangerous, untreated BPH can cause complications like bladder damage or infections. Early detection and treatment help manage the symptoms and improve quality of life without major health risks.

Causes of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

The exact cause of BPH isn’t fully understood, but it’s primarily linked to aging and hormonal changes in men. As men grow older, the levels of testosterone decrease while estrogen levels may remain the same. This hormonal imbalance is believed to trigger prostate cell growth. Other risk factors include a family history of BPH, obesity, and conditions like type 2 diabetes or heart disease. A sedentary lifestyle and lack of physical activity may also contribute to the development of BPH in men over 50.

Diagnosis of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Diagnosing BPH begins with a medical history and physical examination. A digital rectal exam (DRE) is commonly used to assess prostate size. Urine tests help rule out infections or other causes of symptoms. A PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) blood test may be done to screen for prostate cancer. Additional tests like ultrasound, uroflowmetry, or cystoscopy help determine the severity of obstruction and guide treatment options. Accurate diagnosis is crucial to differentiate BPH from other urinary or prostate conditions and to provide the best course of care.

Symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

The symptoms of BPH often develop gradually and may vary among individuals. Common symptoms include a frequent urge to urinate, especially at night (nocturia), weak or interrupted urine flow, and difficulty starting urination. Other signs include dribbling at the end of urination, the feeling of incomplete bladder emptying, and a sudden, strong urge to urinate. These symptoms can range from mild to severe and can interfere with daily activities. If left untreated, BPH can also lead to bladder stones, infections, or urinary retention.

Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Treatment for BPH depends on the severity of symptoms and the patient’s overall health. Mild symptoms may be managed through lifestyle changes like reducing caffeine and fluid intake before bedtime. Medications such as alpha-blockers and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors help relax the prostate and shrink its size. In moderate to severe cases, minimally invasive procedures like TURP (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate) or laser surgery may be recommended. Timely treatment can significantly relieve symptoms, prevent complications, and enhance quality of life.

1. Weak urine stream

A slow or weak urine flow suggests the prostate is pressing against the urethra, restricting proper urine passage.

2. Incomplete bladder emptying

Feeling like the bladder isn't fully empty after urination may indicate blockage caused by an enlarged prostate gland.

3. Frequent daytime urination

Needing to urinate often during the day can be an early indicator of prostate pressure affecting bladder control.

4. Dribbling after urination

Continued urine leakage after finishing can result from weak bladder contractions or pressure from the enlarged prostate.

5. Interrupted urine flow

Stopping and starting several times while urinating often points to prostate-induced obstruction in the urinary tract.
