Abstract

This review explored Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), a prevalent condition among aging males to elucidate its multifaceted nature and emerging treatment options. It meticulously examined the pathophysiology, risk factors, and clinical presentation of BPH to shed light on its profound impact on the quality of patients’ lives. The review comprehensively presented management strategies, including pharmacological and surgical interventions, emphasizing the importance of tailored or individualized treatment plans. Furthermore, it scrutinized the emergence of technologies like laser therapy and minimally invasive procedures for their efficacy and safety profiles in managing BPH. The review culminates by underscoring the imperative for ongoing research endeavors to refine therapeutic approaches and optimize outcomes for individuals grappling with BPH to pave the way for enhanced patient care and well-being.
