Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland in older men. The prevalence of BPH increases with age, affecting approximately 25% of men aged 55 and 50% of men aged 75. While BPH is very common, only a minority of men experience obstructive symptoms. Treatment options include watchful waiting for mild cases, medications like alpha blockers, and surgeries such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for more severe cases. Surgical complications can include hemorrhage, urinary infection, and incontinence.
