As men pass middle age they start to experience health problems that if left untreated can lead to serious complications including death. The longer the initial symptoms are left untreated the worse the problem becomes. Men often wait until their health condition has become extremely serious before seeking help.

One of the most common problems, and the first indication of future problems is the need to make more frequent trips to the bathroom-especially in the middle of the night. For most men, this inconvenience is often made worse by the need to push or strain while urinating. Some even encounter pain or burning while urinating.

While the majority of men over age 60 experience these symptoms, most are not aware of what causes them. These symptoms are typically a result of an enlarged prostate which is one of the most common issues affecting older men. In fact, 60 percent of men over the age of 60 and up to 80 percent of men over the age of 80 have an enlarged prostate.

An enlarged prostate, or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is not life threatening. It is not a type of prostate cancer, nor does it cause prostate cancer. However, as many men would be aware, it can cause considerable discomfort, inconvenience and awkwardness. BPH symptoms differ depending on the severity of the condition. The most common symptoms include:

•  Waking up at night to urinate
•  A Frequent need to urinate (sometimes every two hours or less)
•  Pain or burning sensation during urination
•  Frequent, sudden or uncontrollable urge to urinate
•  Pushing or straining to start urination
•  Feeling like the bladder does not empty completely during urination
•  Dribbling following urination

As a man ages, the chances of developing BPH increase. This is due to growth patterns associated with the prostate. After a man turns 40 the prostate tends to expand due factors involved with aging.

The prostate is a gland which is located just below the bladder. The main function of the prostate is to produce fluid for semen. Problems with the prostate draw mens attention to it. Expansion in the size of the prostate can act like a clamp on a garden hose to restrict the flow of urine in the urethra. As pressure builds and the “clamp” tightens, the result can be some of the commonly perceived BPH symptoms.

Although there is currently no known cure for BPH, there are drugs and procedures available to reduce the symptoms. These can include a wide range of prescription medications as well as surgical procedures that can quickly bring relief.
