Enlarged Prostate (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia - BPH)
Although it is not known exactly what causes an enlarged prostate, it is a common condition generally affecting men over age 50. In fact more than half of all men over the age of 60 have symptoms of an enlarged prostate. Symptoms for BPH may include frequent need to urinate, difficulty starting urination, weak urine flow and feeling of being unable to completely empty your bladder. Your treatment options for BPH include drug therapies, surgery or minimally invasive therapies such as TUNA Therapy (Transurethral Needle Ablation) or Targis® using Cooled ThermoTherapy™ (transurethral microwave thermotherapy -TUMT®).
