An enlarged prostate, or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a common condition in men with age, in which the prostate gland enlarges and presses on the urethra, causing symptoms such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, or poor urine flow.

Our specialized medical team assists you with an accurate diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan.

Treatment of an enlarged prostate
At the Center of Horizons, We take a holistic approach to treating an enlarged prostate to ensure a noticeable improvement:
- Accurate diagnosis: We start with a comprehensive medical examination with urinalysis, prostate antigen (PSA) scan, and ultrasound to assess the size of the prostate.
- Pharmacological treatment: Half medications such as alpha-blockers (such as tamsulosin) to improve urine flow, or 5-alpha reductase inhibitors (such as finasteride) to reduce the size of the prostate.
- Lifestyle changes: We recommend reducing fluids before bed, reducing caffeine and alcohol, and doing pelvic floor exercises to improve urination control.
- Follow-up: We follow up regularly to assess symptom response, and in severe cases, we may recommend procedures such as transurethral prostatectomy (TURP).
- Prevention: We provide guidelines such as maintaining a healthy weight, eating a diet rich in vegetables, and regular check-ups after the age of 50 for early detection.
Our goal is to help you get rid of the annoying symptoms and live more comfortably.
