Patient Notes Benign prostatic hyperplasia Download this Patient Note in PDF format VOL 110 / NO 3 / SEPTEMBER 2001 / POSTGRADUATE MEDICINE The prostate is a walnut-sized gland that is part of the male reproductive system. It is located below the bladder (the organ that stores urine) and surrounds the top portion of the tube that carries urine out of the body (the urethra). The prostate gland makes fluid for semen, which transports sperm during ejaculation. In most men, the prostate gland begins to gradually enlarge after about age 40. The reasons for this are not entirely clear, but hormone changes seem to be a factor. The enlargement is called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and it affects more than half of men over age 60 and about 80% of those over 80. However, only about half these men have any symptoms. What are the symptoms? As the prostate gland increases in size, it can put pressure on the urethra and slow down or cut off the flow of urine. The most common symptoms of BPH are a weak urine stream, a sense of not being able to empty the bladder completely, and urgency or a nagging need to urinate often. Many men have to get up several times at night to go to the bathroom and then have trouble starting the urine stream. How are prostate problems diagnosed?

Facts Diagnosis Prostatitis Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) ... Author About Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia What is benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)? Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common diseases affecting the prostate gland. BPH occurs when there is an increase in the number of the smaller glands and stroma of the prostate gland, which causes the prostate to become enlarged. BPH is a type of tumour that is benign or non-cancerous. It is the most common benign tumour in men, and it becomes much more common as men get older. One study has shown that BPH is present in 20% of men aged 41-50 years, 50% of men aged 51-60 years, and over 90% of men older than 80 years , although the proportion of men with symptoms was much less. BPH is not a life-threatening condition, but if left untreated for a prolonged period of time, it has the potential to cause problems with the function of the bladder, and less commonly, the kidneys. What are the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)?
