The treatment of prostate enlargement includes medication, surgery, etc. The specific treatment plan should be selected according to the cause of the disease and individual physical condition, there is no so-called “best” cure, you need to follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
1. Drug treatment: generally use α-adrenergic receptor blockers to carry out treatment, such as tamsulosin, terazosin, alfuzosin or selodosin, etc. Sometimes, it is necessary to take dutasteride. Sometimes, drugs such as dutasteride or finasteride are needed to relieve the symptoms, but the hormonal effect of blocking the growth of the prostate may occur, and patients are advised to take care of it according to the doctor’s prescription.
2. Surgery: Removing the enlarged and hypertrophied parts of the prostate through surgery such as transurethral prostatectomy ensures that the patient’s urethra is no longer squeezed, thus improving the problem of poor urination.
When acute urinary retention occurs, in order to temporarily solve the difficulty of urination, it is usually necessary to use a catheter to allow the urine to be discharged smoothly.
The same disease, the patient’s physical condition is different, different stages of the disease, the treatment method is different, should be standardized under the guidance of the doctor.
