What is prostate enlargement?

In the beginning, before referring to the meaning of the term prostate enlargement, we first have to define the meaning of the prostate, a gland located on the alignment of the urinary tract specifically in men. Its function is to secrete fluid supporting the sperm, as a result of the progress of men’s age stages, The prostate begins a new phase characterized by inflation, which is called “prostate enlargement”, and the problems of prostate enlargement is more complex, so that not only The problem is that there are many problems in the urinary tract, such as narrowing the urinary tract. If this develops, the narrowing may turn into a complete closure of the urinary tract, which causes problems that appear to be more complex.

It is not a crime that inflation at the start stage, which is benign at this stage, it is different from the stage where the inflation is acute, so begins to generate pressure on the urinary tract, and the symptoms are as follows:

  • The level of urine flowing is less than normal
  • Pain associated with urination with the presence of heartburn in the urine

  • The higher the number of urination than the normal daily rate accompanied by the lack of urine coming down from the bladder
  • The urination process may require a double effort
  • As the inflammation in the prostate gland progresses, a few drops of blood may drop with the urine, or urine may change to redness sometimes
  • Frequent urinary tract infections
  • When the condition develops, kidney stones may occur, or the kidneys fail in other stages to perform their work on the highest efficiency, which is the purification of blood from the waste
  • It is worth mentioning that all symptoms are not inherent to the person in the benign prostatic disease, you may find a few at some point, but if not treated in a limited time, will increase the risk of other symptoms of prostate enlargement

It is possible to diagnose the condition, whether in the early stages or advanced spread of the disease by conducting the clinical examination by the anus, and asked the patient to perform the analysis of urine, and then the doctor to ask for tests of the hormone of the distinctive prostate, which is a hormone is increasing concentration immediately after enlargement of the prostate, The doctor may also examine these glands through the rectum, or using a laparoscope, or a biopsy of prostate cells, and other tests that determine the strength of urine flow and bladder efficiency.
