Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent complications and improve quality of life.
Treatments We Are Offering
Behavior Modification Diet and Exercise
Pain associated with prostate enlargement can be significantly reduced with some lifestyle changes. Simple solutions such as decreasing the amount of fluids consumed at night, limiting caffeine and alcohol consumption, and maintaining a healthy weight decrease bladder pressure. Exercise, particularly aerobic and pelvic floor strengthening, is the most commonly recommended practice to improve control and health of the urinary tract. A balanced diet of fruits, vegetables and antioxidants help promote prostate health and reduce inflammation.
Medications to Improve Urinary Flow Safe and Effective
Symptoms are relieved by medication if lifestyle changes are not effective. Alpha-blockers help to relax the muscles in the neck of the bladder and prostate and make it easier to pass urine. 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors lower the amount of hormones that lie on the prostate. Combined therapy is recommended for higher yields. These drugs are safe; the doctor watches out for side effects.
TURP, Laser Therapy and Other Minimally Invasive Procedures
Minimal invasive procedures exist for patients with medication resistant disease. Laser therapy and TURP is used to decrease prostate tissue to improve urinary flow. Other techniques like transurethral microwave therapy are directed treatment and faster recovery. More economical than surgery, these are often day-care procedures.
Surgery for Advanced or Complicated Cases
Surgery may be required for severe obstruction, recurrent infections or bladder trauma. For large or complex prostates, open or robotic-assisted prostatectomy is considered. Surgery eliminates obstruction and restores bladder emptying for long-term comfort. Only those patients who were not helped by previous treatments should be subjected to this approach.
