Prostate is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is an enlarged Prostate Gland. Though the prostate continues to grow during most of a man's life, the enlargement doesn't usually cause problems until late in life. BPH rarely causes symptoms before age of 40, but more than half of men in their sixties and as many as 90 percent in their seventies and eighties have some symptoms of BPH. As the Prostate enlarges, the layer of tissue surrounding it stops it from expanding, causing the gland to press against the urethra. The bladder wall becomes thicker and irritable. It begins to contract even when it contains small amounts of urine, causing more frequent urination. Eventually, the bladder weakens and loses the ability to empty itself, so some of the urine remains in the bladder. The narrowing of the urethra and partial emptying of the bladder cause many of the problems associated with BPH. Family history of BPH appears to increase the risk of developing the condition.
Symptoms
- a hesitant, interrupted, weak stream.
- urgency and leaking or dribbling.
- more frequent urination, especially at night
The size of the Prostate does not always determine how severe the obstruction or the symptoms will be. Some men with greatly enlarged glands have little obstruction and few symptoms while others, whose glands are less enlarged, have more blockage and greater problems. In a small number of cases, BPH may cause the bladder to be blocked, making it impossible or extremely hard to urinate. This problem may cause backed-up urine (urinary retention), leading to bladder infections or stones or kidney damage.
BPH is not a precancerous condition and does not lead to Prostate Cancer.
Other affections include Prostatitis which is a condition that involves inflammation of the Prostate and sometimes the area around it. Common symptoms include chills, fever, severe burning during urination and the inability to empty the bladder.
