WHAT IS BPH (BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERTROPHY)?
BPH is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that has not been proven to lead to cancer. In most men the prostate begins to enlarge after the age of 40. This enlargement may lead to difficulty with urination. It may also cause no significant symptoms during a man’s life. It can be detected with a DRE by your physician.
