Question 1

hello sir, my dad is 54 yrs old and is suffering from grade 1 prostatomegaly with pvr 129 cc, is this curable with medicine or surgery is indicated...

Accepted Answer

Wait to worry: Your father is getting to an age where prostate enlargement is expected in most men,yet it is not a cause for worry for many years as the symptoms of slowed urination may fluctuate. Unless he has more than mild symptoms, he does not need any intervention right now. A visit with a urologist is all he needs to do which he may already have done. He should go back to him every 1 to 2 years if symptoma

Question 2

my usg showr grade 1 prostatomegaly. what does this mean for my health?

Accepted Answer

Nothing bad: Sounds like you have very mild prostate enlargement.  As long as you are not having significant urinary symptoms (slowing of stream, going too frequently or leakage issues), there is nothing to be concerned about at present.  The prostate normally enlarges with age and intervention may be needed if urinary symptoms worsen.  More diligent monitoring needed if (+) family history of prostate cancer.

Question 3

what is the treatment for grade 1 prostatomegaly?

Accepted Answer

Prostamegally??: first of all there's really not a condition known as "Prostamegally". benign prosthetic hyperplasia is a common condition that occurs in about 50% of men over the age of 50.  when these men have difficulty urinating often times medication is used to relax the prostate. They're also medications used to shrink the size of the prostate. Removing prostatic tissue with a cystoscope is final option

Question 4

hi doctors, can you tell me what is prostatomegaly grade one?

Accepted Answer

Here are some ...: Prostatomegaly grade one denotes the presence of slight/mild prostate enlargement. Such designation as grade 1, 2, or 3 tends to be examiner-subjective with inaccurate to relate the truth of prostate size. So, I prefer to indicate the "real" size as estimated with finger breath (1.25 to 1.5 cm) resulting in stating 3 x 3.5 cm or 3.5 x 4 cm, to make such estimation as objective as possible.

Question 5

what is prostatomegaly?

Accepted Answer

A Large prostate: a Large prostate - also known as Hypertrophy of the prostate

Question 6

what is grade i prostatomegaly? what causes it?

Accepted Answer

Here are some...: Grade 1 prostatomegaly is coined to denote mild degree of prostate enlargement, caused by aging along with subtle change in hormonal balance although the precise mechanism remains imperfectly clear &amp; unknown. In practice, it is arbitrarily designated by practitioners' estimation from digital rectal exam but very inaccurate; clinically, one has to always correlate with patient's voiding pattern.

Question 7

if you have prostatomegaly, what foods should you avoid?

Accepted Answer

Not an issue: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) very common in men after the age of 50. There are no dietary issues that exacerbate this condition for the most part.  Some men with thickened bladders and irritated voiding symptoms find that caffeine and alcohol can exacerbate their symptoms.

Question 8

i suffer from prostatomegaly.  is it cancer or something else dangerous?

Accepted Answer

Big prostate: Welcome to middle age bro.  Enlargement of the prostate happens to many (most?) of us as we get older.   Most of times is benign and more annoying than anything else. Sometimes needs therapy to manage symptoms. That is not to say you cannot get cancer. Talk to your doc about your cancer risk (depends on family history, ethnicity, and other things) so the proper evaluation can be made on time.

Question 9

what is prostatomegaly with central calcification?

Accepted Answer

BPH: this sounds like a radiologist describing an enlarged prostate. This is usually due to benign prostatic hyperplasia of which is very very common. The calcifications in the prostate have no particular risk or clinical significance and are often seen on ultrasound and CAT scan of the pelvis.

Question 10

is prostatomegaly and prostatitis the same?

Accepted Answer

No, are different: Prastatomegaly just means a large or enlarged prostate gland. Prostatitis indicates inflammation of prostate gland either bacterial or non-bacterial. Prostatitis usually causes enlargement of prostate gland, in which case it can cause prostatomegaly. Most cases of prostatomegaly are due to BPH (Benign prostatic hypertrophy)
