Hyperplasia is the increase in size of tissues and organs due to an increase in the number of parenchymal cells and can occur in any tissue or organ. The growth and development of the prostate gland is controlled by the testosterone secreted by the testes. The development and growth of the prostate gland is slow from birth until puberty, and growth accelerates after puberty, from about age 25 to a peak of about 20 grams in weight. When age exceeds 50 years, many people’s prostate gland will again increase in size, which is often referred to as prostate enlargement. This is a normal increase, so it is called benign prostatic hyperplasia, and it occurs mostly in the part of the prostate near the urethra, which is medically classified as the “migratory zone of the prostate”. In addition, there is an abnormal malignant enlargement of the prostate, called prostate cancer, which occurs mostly in the peripheral part of the prostate, which is medically classified as the “peripheral zone of the prostate”. The best thing about this is that it is a very common disease of the elderly. Domestic data show that the incidence of prostatic hyperplasia is 20% at the age of 51-60, 50% at the age of 61-70, 57.1% at the age of 71-80, and 83.3% at the age of 81 or older. Despite the high incidence of prostate enlargement, not all patients with hyperplasia develop symptoms, and if there are no symptoms, they are in principle not treated. The prostate enlargement that shows symptoms, which we call clinical benign prostatic hyperplasia, is the only one that requires active treatment. “The fourth International Advisory Committee on Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia in 1997 recommended that if the prostate enlarges and causes an increase in the size of the gland, it is called “benign prostate hypertrophy”. The “enlarged prostate” is called “benign prostatic hypertrophy”. The term “prostate enlargement” is a pathological term, which means that the prostate tissue is enlarged under the microscope, but the prostate volume does not necessarily increase, and prostate enlargement does not necessarily cause “prostate hypertrophy”; the increase in prostate volume can also be caused by prostate The increase in prostate volume can also be caused by inflammation of the prostate. This is a very good way to get the most out of your life.
