Enlarged Prostate Symptoms FAQuestions |
What are the symptoms of BPH?
The most common symptoms include frequent urination, getting up to urinate at
night, incomplete emptying of the bladder, waiting a while before the flow of
urine begins; urgency, which is the inability to "hold it" and even
incontinence. The symptoms of BPH and prostate cancer can be similar. Anyone
suffering from any of the described symptoms should see a physician for a exam and PSA lab testing for a proper
diagnosis. Any man over the age 50 years old (40 years old if in your family history) should get a yearly exam and testing.

Saw Palmetto - (Serenoa repens, Sabal serrulata) has been demonstrated to have significant benefits in treating BPH. In Europe it is used extensively in treating BPH. Clinical studies demonstrate that 320 mg per day is an effective treatment for symptoms of BPH. A 1998 study by Harvard researchers found that Saw Palmetto extract was effective in the treatment of BPH. (Wilt T.J., Ishani A., Stark, et.al. Saw Palmetto Extracts for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. JAMA, 380:160-169, 1998.) Another study conducted in Germany found that taking 160mg of Saw Palmetto twice-daily reduced night time urination in 73% of the men tested. (Bach D., Ebeling L. Long-term drug treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia - results of a prospective 3-year multicultural study using Sabal extract IDS 89. Phytomedicine, 3:105-11, 1996.) Positive results with BPH usually take four to six weeks. Improved prostate health requires continual use of Saw Palmetto. Pigeum Africanum -is an evergreen tree in Africa. Its bark has historically been used to treat urinary tract infections. It has been used to treat BPH in Europe since the 1980s. The results of many clinical trials demonstrate the effectiveness of Pygeum in reducing the symptoms of BPH. (Andro M.C. Riffaud J.P.. Pygeum africanum extract for the treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia: a review of 25 years of published experience. Curr Ter Res, 56:796-8, 1995).
Beta Sitosterol – has long been used to treat prostate problems in Europe. A double-blind clinical study published in the British medical journal Lancet found that among 200 men with BPH, those given Beta-sitosterol (20mg three times a day for six months) showed considerable improvements in urinary functions versus those men given placeboes, who reported no relief. (Berges R.R., Windeler J., Trampisch H.J., et al. Randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial of beta-sitosterol in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. Lancet; 345:1529–32, 1995). No significant side effects or interactions have been reported with Beta- Sitosterol.
