What is "benign prostatic hyperplasia"?
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in older men where the prostate gland enlarges, pressing against the urethra and causing urinary problems. Symptoms can include frequent urination, difficulty starting urination, weak urine flow, and the feeling that the bladder is not fully emptied. BPH does not cause cancer, but it can significantly impact quality of life. Treatment options range from lifestyle changes and medications to surgical procedures, depending on the intensity of the symptoms.
