BPH – Overview

Transcript

BPH, the benign prostatic hyperplasia that occurs as the prostate grows and or tightens, can be a really annoying and highly prevalent condition in men. Symptoms associated with BPH include storage symptoms, difficulties holding the urine, frequency, urgency, urge incontinence when a man can’t make it in time, or nighttime urination called nocturia. Or, it can be voiding symptoms, making it difficult to void. Slow stream, hesitancy to start, intermittency, as the stream is being passed through the prostate, and urinary retention to varying degrees.
