Prostate Enlargement Surgeries
Prostate enlargement, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a common condition affecting aging men. The prostate gland, located below the bladder and surrounding the urethra, tends to grow larger as men age, which can lead to various urinary symptoms.
At Aurum Men’s Health, we specialize in addressing prostate enlargement to help men manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life. Our comprehensive approach includes thorough evaluations, advanced diagnostic techniques, and personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
Symptoms of prostate enlargement may include frequent or urgent urination, weak urine flow, difficulty starting or stopping urination, and incomplete emptying of the bladder. These symptoms can significantly impact daily activities and overall well-being.
Our expert team of urologists and specialists begins by conducting a comprehensive evaluation, which may include a physical examination, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, and imaging studies such as ultrasound or MRI. Once diagnosed, we work closely with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan that may include:
Medications: Various medications are available to help manage symptoms of prostate enlargement, including alpha-blockers, 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, and combination therapies. These medications can help improve urine flow and reduce symptoms associated with BPH.
Minimally Invasive Procedures: For men with more severe symptoms or complications from prostate enlargement, minimally invasive procedures such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), laser therapy, or prostate artery embolization (PAE) may be recommended to alleviate symptoms and improve urinary function.
Lifestyle Modifications: We provide guidance on lifestyle changes that can help manage symptoms of prostate enlargement, such as reducing fluid intake before bedtime, avoiding caffeine and alcohol, and practicing pelvic floor exercises.
At Aurum Men’s Health, we are committed to providing compassionate care and effective treatment options to help men manage prostate enlargement and improve their quality of life. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards relief.
