ENLARGED PROSTATE (BPH)

Enlargement of the prostate is also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It occurs to some degree in most men with ageing.

Usually prostate enlargement isn’t dangerous, but it can cause bothersome symptoms such as urinary frequency, poor flow and waking at night to pass urine.

At Brisbane Urology Clinic our urologists are experts in the management of prostate enlargement. We offer a range of medical and surgical treatments including transurethral prostatectomy (TURP), greenlight laser prostatectomy, Rezum, HoLEP, Urolift and robotic simple prostatectomy.
