Question 1

i have prostate enlargement problem.frequant urination. stomach pain. hard to breath. when i climb a small lader i am breathing fast?

Accepted Answer

Family practice: You are young to have prostate problems/enlargement   was this a self diagnosis from your other symptoms?  You may have something else. You should be seen.

Question 2

can an enlarged prostate cause e.d?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely : In general, prostatic enlargement is unrelated to erectile dysfunction.  The only connection is that the incidence of both increase with age.

Question 3

can straining too much while excreting causes enlarged prostate?

Accepted Answer

No effect: Size of the prostate is determined genetically , only  aging enlarges the prostate without any disease of  the prostate.

Question 4

could a enlarged prostate "bph" cause high liver enzymes?

Accepted Answer

Liver enzymes: Not likely, some medications for prostate problems can aggravate liver issues however.

Question 5

is there any effective natural treatments  and / or diets for bladder retention caused by enlarged prostate and a "lazy"bladder.?

Accepted Answer

LAZY BLADDER: Treatments are usually aimed at keeping infections away. This can be done with vitamin c and methanamine. This assumes there is no blockage still. Many people simply catheterize to empty the residual urine 2-3x/day.

Question 6

can too much sex cause an enlarged prostate?

Accepted Answer

No: Prostate size tends to be a genetically determined factor.  Irritation, sensation etc may be related to sexual activity, but size itself is independent of this.

Question 7

what could cause enlarged prostate common in young boys?

Accepted Answer

Not aware of any: I suppose a kid can get an infection in his prostate(which  might enlarge it), i'm not aware of condition affecting pre-pubertal males nor do I recall ever having read of one. A narrowed tract (xray) going through the area of the prostate in kids is more likely an abnormality of the pee channel, not enlargement of  the prostate as would be seen in adults.

Question 8

can an enlarged prostate happen in kids/young adults? if so what causes it?

Accepted Answer

Infection?: Enlargement of the prostate is usually thought of with bph, in older men, but can be seen (usually temporarily) with infection of inflammation of the prostate, like prostatitis.  In the younger male, this is usually related to sexual activity, and should be treated with antibiotics.

Question 9

can enlarged prostate  cause constipation?

Accepted Answer

Should not: Benign prostate enlargement  should not cause constipation. Follow with your urologist to make sure your prostate enlargement is benign. Also, see your primary care doc for constipation management. Unless you are checking for someone who is older, you are young for having enlarged prostate. Need seen to resolve both issues.

Question 10

could enlarged prostate cause groin pain?

Accepted Answer

No,...: Prostate-related pain is usually at perineum, penis,  &amp; lower back. Groin pain is usually related with backache as referring pain, hip joint disease, or inguinal hernia, or some disorders inside scrotum itself. But, generally speaking, prostate enlargement itself is painless.
