When it comes to prostatic hyperplasia, I believe many people know that this is a common andrological disease, especially among some middle-aged and elderly men, the incidence is relatively high, once men have prostatic hyperplasia, it can have a great impact on health and normal life.So how big is the prostate? What are the symptoms? Let's take a look at prostatic hyperplasia.

In general, the normal size of the male prostate is 3 cm * 2 cm * 2 cm, if it exceeds it, it is enlarged, but prostatic hyperplasia is physiological and pathological, and men will have a slightly larger prostate with age, as long as it does not affect urination, it can not be treated. The degree of prostatic hyperplasia is not actually classified according to the size of the prostate, even if the prostatic hyperplasia is large, if it also affects the urethra, it will not cause any adverse consequences to men, so it depends on its symptoms.

So what are the symptoms of prostatic hyperplasia? In the early stage of prostatic hyperplasia, frequent urination may occur, especially if there will be an increase in the frequency of nocturia, which indicates that the lesion is developing and aggravating. As the symptoms progress, symptoms such as difficulty urinating and urinary incontinence may gradually appear. In the early stage, it is mainly due to frequent urination, urgency, and nocturia, and if there is obstruction, there will be weakness in urination, thinning of the urine line, urine dripping, and even hematuria. When the degree of prostate enlargement and the severity of symptoms can also be inconsistent.

In addition, prostatic hyperplasia can also cause calcified scars due to chronic inflammation, and if there are no symptoms when calcification, it can also be left untreated, but it is necessary to pay attention to personal hygiene, because calcification points are very easy to breed bacteria, which can cause prostatic hyperplasia to aggravate or causeprostatitisRecurrent.
