Enlarged prostate (BPH) symptoms 开始一次 $59 的在线审核。

An enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH) is common with age and causes a weak stream, hesitancy, frequency, urgency, and nighttime urination. Stable, typical symptoms in a man who has had a baseline prostate evaluation are often a good online condition, treated with an alpha-blocker and sometimes a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. Inability to urinate, blood in the urine, fever, or a first-ever workup needs in-person care including a prostate exam and PSA discussion.

What medicines help an enlarged prostate?

Alpha-blockers (like tamsulosin) relax the prostate and bladder neck for faster symptom relief. For a larger prostate, a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor (finasteride or dutasteride) can shrink it over months. Lifestyle steps help too.

Do I still need an in-person exam?

Yes, especially for a first workup — a baseline prostate exam and a PSA discussion in person help rule out infection and prostate cancer. Online care is best for stable symptoms in someone already evaluated.

When is it an emergency?

Not being able to urinate at all with a painful, full bladder is acute urinary retention — an emergency. Blood in the urine or fever with back pain also needs urgent in-person care.
