The prostate is a small gland that is part of the male reproductive system. It functions as a muscle-driven mechanical switch between urination and ejaculation. Prostate is found below the bladder and in front of the rectum of males. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also called prostate enlargement, is a condition where the prostate grows in size and creates complications. A few of its symptoms are repeated urination, trouble starting to urinate, weak stream, incapability to urinate, or loss of bladder control. While having BPH, the prostate presses on the urethra, which makes it hard to pass urine out of the bladder. Complications of prostate enlargement comprise urinary tract infections, bladder stones, and chronic kidney problems. The topics included in this book on benign prostatic hyperplasia are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to the readers. Different approaches, evaluations, methodologies and advanced studies on BPH have been included herein. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
