Enlargement Prostatic enlargement due to BPH is a noncancerous condition that can be a natural consequence of aging. As the prostate becomes larger, the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the tip of the penis (the urethra) may becomepartially or even completely pinched off. This happens because the urethra passes through the prostate on its way to the penis. While some men experience urinary problems when the urethra is partially obstructed, others do not. It is important to be checked periodically by your doctor, especially if you are 60 years of age or older, in order to keep track of any problems that might develop due to BPH.

A man with BPH has to urinate more often, especially at night, and experiences less force and caliber while urinating, often dribbling. If the prostate enlarges too much, urination is difficult or impossible, and the risk of urinary tract infection and kidney damage increases. A doctor can usually detect an enlarged prostate during a rectal exam. How is it treated?

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Also indexed as: Enlarged Prostate (BPH), Prostatic Hyperplasia Introduction Remedy options Amount to take Men over fifty often experience swelling in the area of the prostate gland and a frequent need to urinate. These are usually minor but annoying problems. Men with prostate conditions should have regular medical examinations, to make sure that deeper problems, such as serious infection or prostate cancer, are not involved. What Is Homeopathy? Apis mellifica: Stinging pain during urination that is worse when the final drops are passing is a strong indication for this remedy. Discomfort may also involve the bladder. The prostate area is swollen and very sensitive to touch. The person may feel worse from heat and from being in warm rooms, with improvement from being out in open air or from cool bathing. Causticum: Urine loss when the person coughs or sneezes often indicates a need for this remedy. Once urine has started passing, the person may feel pressure or pulsation extending from the prostate to the bladder. Causticum is also indicated when sexual pleasure during orgasm is absent or diminished.

Home Our Mission Advisory Board Dr. Carter's Letter ... Links Libraries Prostate Cancer BPH Prostatitis BPH The Basics Take an AUA Questionnaire Special Feature: Saw Palmetto The Basics What is it? Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a nodular, irregular enlargement of the prostate, the walnut-size gland located just below the bladder in men, which produces about 30 percent of the fluid portion of semen. Because the prostate surrounds the urethra (the passageway through which urine empties from the bladder), enlargement of the prostate may eventually constrict the urethra and thus interfere with urination. An enlarged prostate may also cause the muscular bladder wall to thicken, as stronger contractions are necessary to push urine through a narrowed urethra. Increased thickness of the wall of the bladder can reduce its ability to store urine and can result in frequent need for urination and sudden strong urges to urinate (urgency). BPH is common, and its incidence increases with age: Evidence of BPH is present in over 50 percent of men by age 60. There is no evidence that BPH leads to prostate cancer; however, symptoms of both disorders are similar, and it is possible to have BPH and prostate cancer at the same time. BPH responds well to treatment.

Newsletters! Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia What is benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)? BPH (also referred to as benign prostatic hypertrophy) is a condition in which the prostate gland becomes very enlarged and may cause problems associated with urination. BPH can raise PSA (prostate-specific antigen) levels two to three times higher than the normal level. An increased PSA level does not indicate cancer, but the higher the PSA level, the higher the chance of having cancer. Some of the signs of BPH and prostate cancer are the same, however, having BPH does not seem to increase the chances of developing prostate cancer. A man who has BPH may also have undetected prostate cancer at the same time or may develop prostate cancer in the future. Therefore, the National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society recommend that all men over 50 consult their physicians about having a digital rectal and PSA examination once a year to screen for prostate cancer. How does BPH occur?

EFFECTIVE HEALTH CARE DECEMBER 1995 VOLUME 2 NUMBER 2 Bulletin on the effectiveness of health service interventions for decision makers Centre for Reviews and Dissemination Nuffield Institute for Health University of York University of Leeds Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Enlargement of the prostate affects about one third of men over 50 and can cause distressing urinary symptoms. The progress of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is unpredictable, but only a minority of men deteriorate rapidly and some will improve spontaneously. Many men willingly tolerate mild symptoms of BPH. Care should be taken not to overtreat men who are not too bothered by their symptoms. For the majority of men whose symptoms are not unacceptably severe, the condition may be best managed by watchful waiting and simple lifestyle changes. The most effective treatment for severe symptoms is surgery, but about a quarter of men fail to benefit and some end up worse. The most common operation for BPH is transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Incision of the prostate (TUIP) is often just as effective, uses fewer resources and is less hazardous; however it is under-used. Drug therapy on average has a small effect on symptoms, but some men may experience significant benefit.

Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top The actual cause of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is unknown. However, men who have had their testicles removed do not develop BPH and, after castration, BPH has been observed to regress. In other words, the presence of normally functioning testicles appears to be necessary for the development of BPH. Abnormally growing prostate tissue may use male hormones differently than normal prostate tissue. Although this tissue growth is non-cancerous, as the tumor grows larger it can obstruct the urethra and interfere with the normal flow of urine.

Table of Contents Conditions Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Also Listed As: Signs and Symptoms What Causes It? What to Expect at Your Provider's Office Treatment Options ... Supporting Research Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a noncancerous growth of the prostate gland, makes urination difficult and uncomfortable. The expanding prostate squeezes the urethra, the channel that carries urine from the bladder. BPH affects only men. Symptoms usually develop around age 50. At age 60, you'll most likely have BPH. At age 80, you'll have an 80 percent chance of experiencing urination problems caused by BPH. Signs and Symptoms The need to urinate frequently Inability to sleep through the night without getting up to urinate Difficulty starting urine stream or complete inability to urinate Decreased strength and force of the urine stream Dribbling after urination ends Blood in the urine (BPH can cause small blood vessels to burst) What Causes It? Nobody knows the basic cause of BPH. Research shows that testosterone, the male hormone, or dihydrotestosterone, a chemical produced when testosterone breaks down in a man's body, may cause the prostate to keep growing. Since it surrounds the urethra, the prostate gland squeezes the urethra as it expands. Some over-the-counter medications for colds or allergies can drastically worsen BPH. What to Expect at Your Provider's Office Your health care provider will feel your prostate gland directly by putting a gloved finger in your rectum. He or she will also order blood tests and possibly a urine sample. Your health care provider may also ask you to urinate into a device that measures the flow of urine. In intravenous pyelography, your health care provider injects a dye into a vein to make the flow of urine visible on an X ray. In cystoscopy, your provider uses a small probe, passed through your urethra, to directly view the inside of your urethra and bladder. Your penis will be numbed before this procedure.
