But as the condition progresses, the patient may experience pain and discomfort in the lower abdomen, waist, perineum, and other areas. This pain may worsen during activities such as urination, defecation, and sexual intercourse, causing great distress to the patient.

These symptoms affect the patient's quality of life and may lead to complications like urinary tract infections.

These infections not only cause pain to the patient but may also affect fertility. 6.

These psychological issues affect the patient's mood and may worsen the physical discomfort.

It can eliminate symptoms, improve prostatic function, eliminate local edema, and significantly improve the patient's symptoms.

For patients with relatively large prostatic glands, 5 Alpha Reductase inhibitors can be used to reduce the volume of the organ. If the patient does have significant obstruction, surgical treatment can also be used.
