Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an enlarged prostate gland . The prostate gland surrounds the urethra , the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body. As the prostate gets bigger, it may squeeze or partly block the urethra. This often causes problems urinating. BPH occurs in almost all men as they age. BPH is not cancer. An enlarged prostate can be a nuisance, but it is usually not a serious problem. About half of all men older than 50 have some symptoms.1

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is probably a normal part of the aging process in men, caused by changes in hormone balance and cell-growth factors. Genetics may also play a role.2 This is especially true for severe BPH requiring surgery in men younger than 60. Men who are older than 50 have a higher chance of developing BPH. However, why some men have more severe symptoms than others is not known. Many men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) have no symptoms.

Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) is an enlarged prostate. It is a common non-cancerous condition in older men.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a condition that affects the prostate gland in men. The prostate is a gland found between the bladder (where urine is stored) and the urethra (the tube urine passes through). As men age, the prostate gland slowly grows bigger (or enlarges). As the prostate gets bigger, it may press on the urethra and cause the flow of urine to be slower and less forceful. "Benign" means the enlargement isn't caused by cancer or infection.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia is probably a normal part of the aging process in men, caused by changes in hormone balance and in cell growth.

Your doctor can diagnose BPH by asking questions about your symptoms and past health and by doing a physical exam. Tests may include a digital rectal exam, which lets your doctor feel the size of your prostate, and a urine test (urinalysis). In some cases, a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test is done to help rule out prostate cancer. (Prostate cancer and BPH are not related, but they can cause some of the same symptoms.

You cannot prevent BPH or the urination problems it may cause. Some people believe that regular ejaculations will help prevent prostate enlargement. But there is no scientific proof that ejaculation helps.

Benign probably is derived from the Latin word benigenus which means "a good kind" (bene= well, genus= born of, kind). In theory all benign tumors behave well and do not pose serious danger to the patient. Benign tumors are usually easily separated from normal tissues and therefore they can be removed surgically. However, tumors do not read books, so they are not aware of this sharp definition.

The most definitive and diagnosis of brain tumors are done by analyzing a fragment of the tumor under the microscope by the pathologist. The surgeon removes a piece of the tumor and sends it to the pathologist. Using special tissue staining methods, the pathologist can tell whether the tumor is classified under a benign or malignant category. However, this is only the first step in a patient's management.

Symptoms of BPH are associated with urinary difficulties such as frequent urination, especially at night; urinary urgency; leaking or dribbling urine; and a weak urine stream.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that affects men over the age of 50. As the prostate enlarges, it can squeeze down on the urethra like a clamp on a garden hose, resulting in urinary difficulties.

Yes. TUNA Therapy and Prostiva RF Therapy are among the few recommended minimally invasive treatments in the American Urological Association Guideline on Management of BPH.

From two to six weeks patients will notice improvement. Full improvement may not occur for two to three months. Follow your physician’s instructions as to when to stop taking your BPH medication.

A benign breast condition is any non-cancerous breast abnormality. The most common benign breast conditions include fibrocystic change, benign breast tumors, and breast inflammation. Most benign breast conditions such as fibrocystic change or fibroadenomas (small tumors) do not increase a woman’s risk for breast cancer later in life.

Endometrial hyperplasia is a thickening of the endometrium with the finding of abnormal cells - a pre-cancerous condition. It is diagnosed through an endometrial biopsy where a thin catheter is threaded through the cervix and a small sample of the lining is removed. A pathologist reviews the tissue and results are not available immediately.
