A member asked:
Is benigna prostat hiperplation caused by over or less ejaculation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Genetics: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or enlargement is not specifically caused by any action on the part of the individual, rather this is genetically and proteomically determined (we will have to blame his father or grandfather for this). Ejaculation can temporarily reduce the symptoms of bladder outlet obstruction due to the prostate but ejaculation is not the cause.
