Tag: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in aging men characterized by the enlargement of the prostate gland, leading to urinary symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, weak urine stream, and incomplete bladder emptying. While not life-threatening, BPH can significantly impact quality of life. Treatment options include medications to relax the prostate and improve urinary flow, such as tamsulosin (Flomax), finasteride (Proscar), and dutasteride (Avodart). Additionally, herbal supplements like saw palmetto may offer symptom relief. These medications are often available for purchase online without a prescription, but consulting a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment guidance is recommended.
