You suspected it for a long time, and now you know for sure: You’ve got BPH. What should you do? Do you need to be treated, and if so, how? With surgery, medication, or another form of treatment? Or, should you just wait a while, and see whether your symptoms get worse?

If your symptoms are mild and you can live with them, you should consider watchful waiting. This doesn’t mean “do nothing.” It means “wait and see.”

However, if you have any of the following problems, you need surgery now: Kidney damage, recurrent or persistent episodes of urinary retention (not being able to empty the bladder completely, or worse, not being able to urinate at all), recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder stones, repeated episodes of bleeding when you urinate, or severe urgency that leads to incontinence—when urine leaks because you can’t make it to the bathroom in time.

A lot of men with BPH, consciously or not, plan their day around trips to the bathroom. What about you? Has BPH started to intrude on your life? Can you still do everything you want to do? If not, do you want treatment badly enough to run the risk of side effects or complications? If you’re somewhere in between these two extremes of BPH mentioned above, there are many options for you to consider. Read about them, weigh the risks and benefits of each, and discuss them with your doctor.
