Reading 1 for question 161-167
The term benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) just simply means an enlarge prostate. It is generally believed to affect most
men over the age of 45 (with various levels of severity). Overall, the number of men with BPH increases progressively with
age. By age 60, 50 percent of men will have some signs of BPH. By age 85, 90 percent of men will have signs of the condition.
About one-third of these men will develope symptoms that require treatment. Prostate enlargement, or BPH, is not a
malignant condition,but it does put pressure on the urethra and can cause a number of urinary symptoms such as frequent
urination, urinary urgency, the need to get up at night to urinate, difficulty starting urination, a reduction in the force of the
urine stream, terminal dribbling, incomplete emptying of the bladder, and even the inabiity to urinate at all. The prostate,
a small gland that produces fluid for semen, is in an ideal position to cause trouble. The gland wraps snugly around the
urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder. It’s a tight squeeze-and it only gets tighter as men grow older. As
symptoms progress, a man may also be at higher risk of bladder stones and bladder infection. The kidneys may be damaged
from back pressure caused by the retention of large amounts of urine in the bladder. There may be sudden blockage of the
urinary tube, making urination impossible, and not infrequently, blood may be detected in the urine. The exact mechanism
for the enlargement of the prostate gland remains unclear; however, there are certain factors that are obviously involved.
As men age, the male sex hormone dihydrotestosterone(DHT) starts to build up in the prostate, which causes the prostate
to slowly enlarge.
The Vahlensieck, AUSI and I-PSS rating systems are used to evaluate the severity of symptoms associated with BPH. All these
methods are based on a limited number of questions associated with a numbered score: the total score is an evaluative index
of BPH-associated severity, which can be from “mild” to “moderate” or “severe”. Severe symptoms that are associated with
a very large prostate may require surgery.
