Treatment of BPH by an expert urologist in Rabat
BPH, or benign prostatic hyperplasia, is a very common benign condition in men over 50. This benign prostatic hyperplasia corresponds to an increase in the size of the prostate gland, which compresses the urethra and causes urinary problems. Our urology clinic provides support for the treatment of BPH in Rabat.
When urinary problems should raise concern
BPH causes urinary problems that impact your daily life. You experience frequent urges to urinate, including at night, with a weak stream and a feeling of incomplete emptying. These symptoms develop gradually and can affect your quality of life. Certain signs require prompt medical attention. Abdominal pain, blood in the urine, or the inability to urinate are emergencies.
A clinical examination allows us to assess your situation and rule out other conditions such as prostate cancer. The earlier treatment begins, the better the chances of rapid relief.
Tests to confirm prostate enlargement
The diagnosis of BPH begins with a thorough consultation to understand your urinary problems. A digital rectal exam assesses the size of the prostate and detects any abnormalities. An ultrasound measures the prostate volume and post-void residual urine to evaluate the impact on the bladder and urinary tract.
Further tests refine the diagnosis. PSA level measurement allows for the screening of any potential associated cancer risk. Urodynamic testing assesses urinary flow rate and bladder capacity. Our urology practice is equipped with modern technology to conduct a comprehensive assessment that will guide your personalized treatment plan.
Medical and surgical solutions for BPH
Drug treatment is often the first approach. Alpha-blockers relax the muscles of the lower urinary tract and improve urine flow. Reductase inhibitors gradually reduce prostate volume. These treatments effectively relieve urinary discomfort, although side effects such as erectile dysfunction or retrograde ejaculation may occur.
Surgical treatment becomes necessary in cases of acute urinary retention, recurrent urinary tract infections, or kidney failure. Our urological surgery center offers modern techniques that reduce urinary incontinence and preserve your sexual function. We will guide you in choosing the solution best suited to your condition.
The importance of a specialist consultation
Don't let BPH diminish your quality of life. Early consultation can prevent symptoms from worsening and complications from developing. The earlier you seek medical help, the simpler and more effective the solutions will be.
