Symptoms and Treatment of Prostate Adenoma

How to protect yourself from cancer and surgery

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (swelling) is a consequence of hormonal imbalance in the male body. By the age of 40, he begins to produce less androgynes, which, among other things, regulate the growth of the prostate. When their number decreases, the cells of the gland begin to divide continuously, and it grows. The enlarged prostate compresses the urethra, presses on the bladder and rectum. Naturally, this affects the processes of the body not for the better.

Symptoms of prostate adenoma are many. This and rapid urination, especially at night, and urine retention, and lack of a feeling of complete devastation of the bladder, and much more. As in the case of prostatitis, when symptoms appear, you need to go to the doctor. Otherwise, the consequences can be quite deplorable. For example, infertility, the need for a urine receiver, stones in the bladder and kidney failure.

In addition, timely diagnosis allows you to manage drug treatment. The drugs that return to the prostate gland non-controversial in relation to other organs of the size, have long been tried and successfully operate. There are also a lot of folk remedies. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is treated with pumpkin seeds, garlic, walnuts, honey and infusion of celandine. But the late stages of adenoma require surgical intervention. No other way.

Finally, most importantly - the symptoms of adenoma are similar to those of a malignant tumor of the prostate. Therefore, ultrasound and a blood test for the detection of prostate-specific antigen - this is Alpha and Omega of modern reception with a urologist. Since all men over the age of 40 are at risk (and there are no clear prerequisites for adenoma and prostate cancer, apart from a natural hormonal malfunction), it is advisable to visit a doctor and for prevention at times. So do in developed European countries. An annual visit to a specialist in men's health is a common practice of thinking about their future person. At us go to hospital only when it became bad. And this is at best, because many people prefer to endure pain and wait for it to pass sooner or later. But the disease is not the time of year, does not pass by itself.
