BPH: Enlarged Prostate – Diet & Lifestyle | Dr Ajit Yadav
Frequent urination, waking up multiple times at night to use the bathroom, or difficulty starting your urine stream? These may be symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate.
While diet and lifestyle changes cannot cure BPH or necessarily shrink an enlarged prostate, certain habits may help manage urinary symptoms and support overall health.
Here are some practical tips:
🥤 Manage Fluid Intake
☕ Limit Caffeine & Alcohol
🥗 Choose a Balanced Diet
🚶 Stay Physically Active
🚽 Avoid Holding Urine
💡 Manage Constipation
Remember: Lifestyle changes can support symptom management, but persistent urinary problems need proper medical evaluation. Treatment options depend on prostate size, symptoms and individual health.
