Enlarged Prostate Signs & Symptoms (& Why They Occur)

Enlarged Prostate and Prostate Cancer Signs & Symptoms (& Why They Occur)

Prostate enlargement (most often benign prostatic hyperplasia) is a very common condition that occurs in men as they get older. Enlargement of the prostate can cause constriction of the urethra and pressure on the bladder, leading to a host of lower urinary tract signs and symptoms. In this lesson, we discuss the signs and symptoms including complications of an enlarged prostate, and we also discuss the warning (red flags) symptoms that may indicate prostate cancer.

Thanks for these YouTube videos regarding Enlarged Prostate. I am 72 years old and have most if not all the symptoms mentioned here. I have been to Several Urologists, every time coming out totally confused.
None of the Dr’s I have been to have explained in such simple language and in details that I could really understand, like your videos have done. And also the information about food to eat and the one’s to avoid etc is so helpful. The Dr’s seem to either totally ignore the life style changes or natural remedies or downplay them. Their focus is just on medications and surgeries. Your videos have made a big difference in my understanding, which is a major first step in healing. thank you. thank you. thank you.

*OMG*
I just turned 40 this year and noticed that I've had significant changes in the past couple yrs. I suffer with *most* of these symptoms especially with the urinary issues like troubles with initiating, stream strength, intermittent streams and nocturia. All that fun stuff that gives us men trouble. Thanks for the informative video...now I need to make an appointment with my family doc to get it looked at.

Really love your work! So much medical stuff, but easy to understand even for us who are not in medical or finished medical schools. I' am medical physicist, doing superficial radiotherapy and i have a lot of cases of malignant prostate tumors (Adenocarcinomas ). This video really helped me understand enlargement of prostate. Cheers

I'm 32 years old and I've been suffering with signs and symtoms like this for over a month. I've been to urgent care, the er and an urologist and nothing have been solved. I feel like there is slight pressure down there and feels like I have to pee all the time. I don't want to move because it's worse. This is hell

Reduce carbs and sugar in your diet. Exercise and walk 3 to 4 times or more weekly. Take pygeum, stinging nettle root, beta sitosterol, and saw palmetto. Maintain a healthy weight.

[garyvale]

..for those of us, diagnosed by our doctor with BPH or have any of these symptoms, what can we do to help..( example: any specific exercise, diet, OTC meds )

[evertspies]

Well explained. What is the solution? Is there medication? What causes the prostate to enlarge or is it only changing hormones.
