Prostatic adenoma (BPH) is a common condition in men over 50. Urologist-andrologist Amanzholova Sh.K. provides diagnostics and effective treatment in Aktobe.
Prostatic adenoma, or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a gradual enlargement of the prostate that obstructs urine outflow from the bladder. The condition affects 50% of men over 50 and 80% of men over 70. Despite being widespread, most cases can be managed well without surgery.
The enlarged prostate compresses the urethra passing through it, progressively impairing urine flow. The earlier treatment begins, the better the chances of managing it with medication and avoiding surgery.
Symptoms are minimal or absent. The prostate is only slightly enlarged. Treatment involves active surveillance and lifestyle changes. Regular PSA monitoring is mandatory.
Urination symptoms appear. The bladder still manages to empty. Drug treatment with alpha-blockers and 5-ARIs is effective.
The bladder can no longer empty completely; residual urine accumulates. Risk of acute urinary retention is high. Surgical treatment may be required.
Adenoma is a benign condition and does not transform into cancer. However, both conditions can coexist. A PSA test at every check-up rules out malignancy.
📌 After age 50 — annual PSA check
Men over 50 are advised to have annual PSA testing and a urologist check-up. This enables early detection of adenoma and prostate cancer at a stage that responds well to treatment.
