    Prostate diseases are common in progressing age and, leading causes cause death due to related complications. 


     


    Who is affected?


     


    The prostate problem is mostly perceived to be associated with prevailing medical conditions, age, weather changes, travel stress, diverse places and water. In this classification, however, the changing of the lifestyles of individuals receives less importance. An erratic lifestyle, however, is a factor in a prostrate problem.


     


    Stages in Prostate Development


     


    There are two main stages of prostate enlargement with age. The first stage is in puberty when the prostate doubles in size. The second growth begins at age 25 and lasts throughout the lifetime of the male. 


     


    Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) often occurs in the second stage of development. Patients with BPH usually complain of frequent urinary problems, difficulty urinating, and not having urine.


     


    Effects of BPH on quality of life 


     


    The enlargement of the prostate can cause symptoms of the lower urinary tract, which deteriorates the quality of life. Due to these symptoms, the patient reduces taking water and other fluids and keeps his attention focused on urine.


     


    Diagnosed by PSA test


     


    BPH in patients alters their behaviour and, they always want to stay around the bathroom. An overactive bladder disorder is diagnosed through PSA(prostate-specific antigen) test. PSA is a protein made only from the prostate. When the prostate is healthy, very little PSA find in the blood. It is called the first symptom of this problem.


     


    Medications, drugs and, treatments


     


    Most importantly, patients are not aware of this disease because they consider it as part of old age. However, when there is a sudden problem with urinating suddenly and frequently, most people realize that there is a problem. 


     


    There are medications, behavioural therapy, natural cures for controlling the symptoms. It is observed that a low-fat and sodium diet, plenty of intake of water and, low protein food are the best home remedy against kidney and prostate infections


    If these treatments do not work, the last option is to remove the prostatic tissue through surgery.
