An enlarged prostate is one of the common health problems in men, starting from the age of 40, due to changes in the hormone balance, starting from this age, according to the German Urology Association, which indicated that an enlarged prostate leads to narrowing of the urethra, which leads to problems in the urinary tract. Pointing out that the symptoms indicative of an enlarged prostate are the urgent desire to urinate, especially at night, weak urine stream, urinary incontinence and dripping, and the feeling of residual urine.

Bleeding is also a possible symptom of an enlarged prostate.

Increased pressure on the prostate and bladder can lead to rupture of blood vessels.

Decreased sexual ability is a symptom of an enlarged prostate.

And the German Society stressed the need to consult a doctor immediately after noticing the symptoms to undergo the necessary examinations to verify whether this inflation indicates a benign tumor or a malignant tumor (prostate cancer).

Benign prostatic hyperplasia is treated with medication, and surgical intervention may be required, as the prostate tissue is removed and the urethra is narrowed.

Prostate cancer is treated with chemotherapy, radiotherapy and hormonal therapy, and surgery can be used to remove the prostate.

To help prevent an enlarged prostate, men should maintain a normal weight, exercise regularly, eat a healthy, balanced and low-fat diet, and stop smoking and alcoholic beverages.

It is noteworthy that the prostate is a male reproductive gland located in the lower abdomen and surrounds the urethra where it exits from the bladder.

• Benign inflation is treated with medication, and surgical intervention may be required. As for prostate cancer, it is treated with chemotherapy, radiation, and hormonal therapy.
