Common male diseases such as prostatitis and adenoma often have dangerous consequences, including cancer and infertility, with inadequate or no treatment. This is why a man should see a doctor for the first symptoms. Only one professional can choose an effective drug to treat adenoma and prostatitis. Treatment of prostate pathologies with folk remedies is allowed only in the initial stage of the mild form, provided there are no complications. If prostatitis or adenoma becomes complicated, severe, or chronic, effective treatment should only be done with medication.
When is medical treatment for the prostate recommended?
There are various methods for treating pathologies of the prostate. The best treatment for different forms of prostate adenoma and inflammation of the prostate can only be chosen by the doctor, taking into account the causes of the disease, the form, severity and age of the patient.
Before choosing the best treatment for prostate adenoma, your doctor should rule out the need for surgical treatment of the pathology. Drug therapy is recommended if all of the following are positive:
- ruled out the possibility of prostate cancer;
- the patient has no direct indication for surgical treatment of the disease;
- the adenoma does not extend into the ureteral cavity;
- the importance of maintaining the patient's sexual function and whether this will be maintained at the time of treatment should be taken into account;
- the man is not taking any other medication for other ailments (anticoagulants, diuretics, etc. ).
Before treating the pathology and selecting the most effective medication for prostate adenoma, your doctor should perform the following tests:
- ultrasound to assess the amount of residual urine and prostate volume;
- perform uroflometry;
- assess the severity of symptoms that bother the patient on a scale of symptoms (problems with urea drainage or urine build-up);
- it is important to clarify the list of comorbidities (stroke, myocardial infarction and diabetes).
