Prostate Problems
Posted by Dr. Bob Crisafi on Fri, Nov 13, 2009 @ 02:04 PM
Frequently we hear from men in their forties who think they are too young to have prostate problems. They admit to having urinary symptoms such as having to urinate more frequently during the day and also having to get up at night to urinate. They usually mention that they have urgency at times. The facts are, these men have the beginning symtoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and they will find that the symptoms will gradually become more pronounced within the next couple of years. More than 50% of men in their sixties and as many as 90% in their seventies and eighties are diagnosed with BPH. Although the phrase "benign prostatic hyperplasia" sounds like something serious, the good news is that the word "benign" means non-cancer. Therefore,if your a man in your forties with BPH symptoms, understand that it's a condition that will worsen; however, can be controlled with amino acid supplementation or other non-prescription products.
