Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Benign prostatic hyperplasia is the noncancerous enlargement of the prostate, a gland of the male reproductive system that surrounds the urethra; as it enlarges, it can compress the urethra and hinder the passage of urine.
Frequent symptoms: Frequent need to urinate, especially at night, a weak or interrupted stream, difficulty starting urination, and a sensation of incomplete emptying.
Common causes: It is mainly associated with the hormonal changes typical of aging.
Which specialist treats it? The urologist is the one who studies the prostate and follows up on these symptoms. If you notice changes in the way you urinate that become bothersome or constant, discussing it with this specialist helps clarify the origin and receive appropriate guidance.
