Did you know that it is estimated that 50
percent of men that are over the age of 60 have benign prostatic
hyperplasia also known as BPH1 or in layman’s terms an enlarged
prostate? If you find this amazing then you will be shocked to hear
that by 85 years old the percentage jumps to an astounding 90 percent1.
This is why if you are a man nearing these ages you will want to
educate yourself on this condition. There are symptoms that you might
have that might indicate you have benign prostatic hyperplasia
otherwise known as BPH.
Most of the symptoms have to do with
urination because of the location in your body of your prostate. With benign
prostatic hyperplasia the prostate gland is enlarged (enlarged
prostate
gland) and squeezes the urethra causing urination to be difficult or
even painful at times. You might find that you have weak urine flow if
you have BPH. Another symptom is difficulty starting urination and the
frequent need to urinate both day and night. Benign prostatic
hyperplasia can affect the quality of your life and how you plan out
your day.
Do you no longer sleep through the night?
Are you getting up
once, twice, even three times or more to urinate through the night? The
more you wake up it affects the quality sleep you are getting. You
might not ever sleep straight through the night again until you have
treated your BPH.
When ever you go anywhere new in your daily life you are on the look
out for the nearest bathroom. Frequent urination is now a fact of life
and when you need to go you need to go. So you do not want, at that
time, to be searching for the bathroom. So now everywhere you go you
make sure you know the location of the nearest bathroom. Has your benign
prostatic hyperplasia now changed your quality of life?
Using
the medical term benign prostatic hyperplasia does not change the fact
that an enlarged prostate can change the way your life is lived. Make
sure to get a yearly physical where your doctor checks you for benign
prostatic hyperplasia.
