Get your nights — and your bladder — back.
An enlarged prostate causes weak stream, urgency and getting up at night. We use the validated IPSS score plus a clinician review to recommend the right plan.
Treatment options
- Alpha-blockers (tamsulosin) — Relaxes prostate muscle for better flow.
- 5-ARIs (finasteride) — Shrinks the prostate over time.
- Combination therapy — Best for moderate-to-severe symptoms.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I know if I have BPH?
- BPH typically presents as weak urinary stream, hesitancy, urgency, frequent urination, and waking at night to urinate. We use the validated IPSS questionnaire to quantify severity.
- Is BPH dangerous?
- BPH itself is non-cancerous, but untreated symptoms can lead to bladder damage, infections, and reduced quality of life. PSA and prostate cancer screening are separate evaluations your clinician may recommend.
- How long until BPH medication works?
- Alpha-blockers like tamsulosin can improve flow within days. 5-ARIs like finasteride take 3–6 months to shrink the prostate measurably.
- Can I be evaluated for BPH online?
- Yes. Adults 18+ in Florida can complete the IPSS screen online; a urologist reviews your history and orders labs or referral if needed.
