Скачать или смотреть Prostate Health Month: Does Size of the Prostate Matter?

September is Prostate Health Month.

While prostate cancer is an important health issue, there are other concerns related to the prostate. One of them, enlarged prostate, also known as benign hypertrophy (BPH), is a non-cancerous disorder affecting about 70 percent of men over the age of 50. BPH sometimes causes urinary problems such as incontinence and voiding dysfunction (irritated bladders, having to use the bathroom more often, more urgency, etc)

Shahin Tabatabaei, MD, staff urologist and director of the Prostate Health Program at Mass General, talks in this video about the prostate's location and function, the problems it presents, symptoms to look out for and modern treatments that help patients.
