Inicialmente, se pueden recetar medicamentos como bloqueadores alfa o inhibidores de la 5-alfa-reductasa para aliviar los síntomas reduciendo el tamaño de la próstata o relajando los músculos prostáticos.
Este procedimiento mínimamente invasivo, también conocido como terapia láser GreenLight, utiliza energía láser para vaporizar el exceso de tejido prostático, aliviando la obstrucción urinaria mientras preserva el tejido saludable.
Para casos severos o cuando otros tratamientos no son efectivos, se pueden recomendar procedimientos quirúrgicos como la resección transuretral de la próstata (TURP) o la prostatectomía asistida por robot para eliminar el exceso de tejido prostático y mejorar el flujo urinario.

Al igual que con cualquier procedimiento médico, existen riesgos y complicaciones potenciales. Sin embargo, los tratamientos para la HPB son generalmente seguros y las complicaciones graves son raras. El Dr. Cumming discutirá los riesgos y beneficios específicos de cada opción de tratamiento durante su consulta para ayudarle a tomar una decisión informada.
El tiempo de recuperación varía según el tipo de tratamiento. Los procedimientos mínimamente invasivos generalmente tienen tiempos de recuperación más cortos, lo que permite a los pacientes regresar a sus actividades normales dentro de unos días a una semana. Las cirugías más invasivas pueden requerir un período de recuperación más largo, que va desde unas pocas semanas hasta un mes.
Debe consultar a un médico si experimenta algún síntoma urinario que afecte su calidad de vida, como dificultad para orinar, micción frecuente o un flujo de orina débil. La evaluación y el tratamiento tempranos pueden ayudar a controlar los síntomas y prevenir complicaciones.
Si bien la HPB no se puede prevenir por completo, adoptar un estilo de vida saludable puede reducir su riesgo. Esto incluye mantener un peso saludable, llevar una dieta balanceada rica en frutas y verduras, mantenerse físicamente activo, evitar el consumo excesivo de alcohol y cafeína, y no fumar.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) does not lead to prostate cancer. BPH is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland, while prostate cancer is a separate condition. However, symptoms of BPH and prostate cancer can be similar, so it's important to consult a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Treatment for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) depends on the severity of symptoms and can include:
Medications: Alpha-blockers and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors to relieve symptoms or shrink the prostate.
Minimally Invasive Procedures: Techniques like UroLift, Rezum, or laser therapy to reduce prostate size and alleviate symptoms.
Surgery: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or open prostatectomy for more severe cases.
Your healthcare provider will recommend the most appropriate treatment based on your specific condition.

An enlarged prostate, or BPH, can sometimes cause blood in the urine due to increased pressure in surrounding tissues. Managing this condition involves understanding the causes, such as aging or hormonal changes, and exploring treatment options, such as medications or surgery, to improve urinary health and general well-being.
Men with an enlarged prostate can benefit from Viagra, as it helps with both erectile dysfunction and urinary symptoms. However, it is essential to consult a healthcare professional to ensure safety, especially if other medications are being taken. There are alternative treatments, so exploring all options is essential to effectively manage symptoms.
