Dr. Francisco R. Rodriguez answered

Specializes in Urology

BPH: Enlargement of prostate per se is not significant unless you have symptoms like frequency, nocturia, small or slow stream, difficulty emptying your bladder. Most men over fifty will have some enlargement. Obviously you must have some problems if you had an u/s, discuss it with a urologist.
