Prostate hyperplasia—often referred to as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)—can lead to urinary symptoms that interrupt your routines, rest, and overall comfort. Through care at Midwest Institute for Non-Surgical Therapy, you can access modern treatment options that ease symptoms and help you regain control of your day-to-day life. As you explore solutions, you can also learn about additional supportive services that may complement your prostate health needs.
BPH occurs when the prostate enlarges and places pressure on the urethra, making it harder for urine to pass smoothly. While common with age, untreated symptoms can worsen over time and significantly impact your quality of life. Understanding how BPH develops—and what options are available—can help you feel more confident in choosing the right path forward.
Common Symptoms of Prostate Hyperplasia
You may experience one or more of the following:
- Frequent or urgent need to urinate
- Difficulty starting urination
- Weak or interrupted urine stream
- Feeling unable to fully empty your bladder
- Increased nighttime urination
- Dribbling or leakage after urination
Even mild symptoms can become more disruptive over time, making early evaluation important.
Treatment Options for BPH
Lifestyle and Symptom Management
Your provider may recommend simple adjustments—such as fluid timing, pelvic floor exercises, or certain medications—to reduce discomfort and improve daily function.
Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE)
PAE is a minimally invasive treatment that reduces blood flow to the prostate, causing it to shrink naturally. This option can significantly improve urinary symptoms without major surgery or prolonged recovery time.
Monitoring and Follow-Up
Not all cases require immediate intervention. Regular monitoring helps ensure your symptoms don’t progress or begin affecting bladder health.
