As men get older, it’s pretty common for their prostate gland to get bigger. This is called benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH for short. It can make going to the bathroom a hassle, and can be frustrating to deal with. In this episode, I’ll break down what BPH is, the symptoms to watch for, different treatments. I’ll also give out some natural ways to alleviate the discomfort.


What is an Enlarged Prostate (BPH)?

Many men get a condition called BPH as they get older. BPH stands for benign prostatic hyperplasia, which means a man’s prostate gland gets bigger. This bigger gland can squeeze the tube that urine flows out of the body, causing uncomfortable urination problems. Since BPH affects so many men, especially older men, it’s important to understand it.

Common Symptoms of an Enlarged Prostate

The symptoms of BPH can be quite bothersome and include:

  • Increased Urinary Frequency: The need to urinate more often, especially at night.
  • Urgency: An urgent need to urinate, sometimes leading to accidents.
  • Weak Urine Stream: Difficulty in starting and maintaining a steady urine flow.
  • Incomplete Emptying: Feeling that the bladder isn’t completely empty after urination.
  • Dribbling: Leaking a few drops of urine after you think you’re finished.
  • Straining: Difficulty in passing urine and maintaining flow.
  • Urinary Retention: In severe cases, a complete inability to urinate, which can be painful.
  • Frequent UTIs: Due to incomplete bladder emptying, there’s an increased risk of urinary tract infections.
  • Hematuria: The presence of blood in urine, which can be alarming and requires immediate medical attention.

It’s important to catch any problems early. Talk to your doctor if you notice any of these symptoms. They will likely do some tests, like blood work and a check-up, to see what’s going on and rule out other issues like prostate cancer or bladder stones.


Enlarged Prostate Treatments and Natural Remedies

Once diagnosed with BPH, there are several treatment options available. The treatments can range from medical interventions to natural remedies. Here’s a breakdown:

Medical Treatments

If you have an enlarged prostate, there are medicines that can help. These come in two main types:

  • Relaxers
    These medications relax the muscles around your bladder neck, making it easier to pee.
  • Shrinkers
    These medications shrink your prostate gland over time, giving your urine more space to flow.

Doctors usually recommend medicine first, especially for milder cases. But if medicine isn’t strong enough, there are also surgeries to treat an enlarged prostate.

Natural Remedies for Enlarged Prostate

Natural Remedies for Enlarged Prostate

Before trying any natural remedies, it’s crucial to consult with your doctor. Here are some natural options that may help manage BPH symptoms:

  1. Saw Palmetto: This herbal supplement is popular for its potential to reduce urinary symptoms linked to BPH.
  2. Pygeum: Derived from the bark of the African plum tree, it’s known for improving symptoms like nocturnal urination.
  3. Beta-Sitosterol: Found in various plants, it can enhance urinary flow.
  4. Stinging Nettles: Known to aid in increasing urine flow and reducing symptoms.
  5. Rye Grass Pollen Extract: Shown to improve urinary symptoms.

Lifestyle Modifications for BPH

Lifestyle changes can greatly influence prostate health:

  • Maintain a Healthy Weight: Aim for a BMI under 30.
  • Limit Water Before Bed: Reduce fluid intake two hours before sleep.
  • Avoid Caffeine and Alcohol: Limit caffeine five hours before bed and alcohol at least 3-4 hours prior.
  • Follow a Mediterranean Diet: Focus on fruits, vegetables, and nuts.
  • Exercise Regularly: Regular physical activity is beneficial for overall health.

Additional Tips

Some men find relief from prostatitis symptoms by using a prostate massager. These massagers may improve blood flow to the prostate, which could reduce swelling and discomfort. However, before you try one, it’s important to see your doctor. They can rule out any serious problems, like prostate cancer, that might be causing your symptoms.


Final Thoughts

An enlarged prostate can be a hassle, but knowing what’s going on and taking charge of your health can make things better. There are natural ways and lifestyle changes that can help with symptoms, but these should go along with the treatment plan your doctor gives you. Always talk to your doctor before taking any supplements, and make sure you get them from a trusted source.

By being proactive with natural remedies, eating a healthy diet, and seeing your doctor regularly, men with enlarged prostate (BPH) can feel a lot better and keep enjoying life.
