PROSTATE - ENLARGEMENT / BPH - BEST TREATED BY DR DILIP RAJA

The prostate is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system. The gland is made up of two lobes or regions enclosed by an outer layer of tissue. It is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder which is the storage organ for urine. The prostate gland surrounds the urethra, the canal through which urine passes out of the body.

Benign enlargement of the prostate or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non cancerous growth of the prostate gland. It is considered more as an aging disorder rather than a disease.
