Enlarged Prostate Treatment Options

“Health is wealth” is a saying that rings true with a lot of people.  However, some people find themselves facing conditions that they would rather not have to deal with.  One condition that affects over 50% of men over the age of 60 is benign prostatic hyperplasia, of BPH.  And just like any other condition, BPH treatment is available.  Treatment options range from non-invasive methods such as medication and out patient Cooled ThermoTherapy to surgery.  If you find that your health is not as you would like it to be, talk with your doctor and make the changes necessary to restore yourself.

Cooled ThermoTherapyTM is available by prescription only.  This therapy is not for everyone.  Talk to your physician to see if Cooled ThermoTherapy is right for you. Most medical procedures may have side effects. Possible side effects for Cooled ThermoTherapy include blood in urine, clots in urine, painful or difficult urination, thickened bladder muscle, rectal irritation, temporary inability to control urination, brief inability to achieve or maintain swelling of the male organ and the inability to discharge semen at climax, thus should be considered by men who wish to have further offspring. A small risk of urethral stricture may result requiring further intervention. Patients may experience discomfort during the procedure that may require the use of analgesics or sedatives. Patients may be catheterized for a 2 to 5 day period following the treatment.1  For more complete information about the benefits and risks associated with Cooled ThermoTherapy please refer to the Instructions for Use found on our website at www.cooledthermotherapy.com or call us at 1.800.475.1403.

What is BPH?

The gradual enlargement of the prostate is a non-cancerous disease common among aging men. The enlarged prostate can intrude into the urethra causing partial or complete obstruction of urine flow. This condition is referred to as benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH. While BPH is usually not life threatening, it can cause considerable discomfort, with complete obstruction leading to emergency surgery for resolution. Over half of all men over 50 have BPH symptoms, with the percentage growing to 80% of men over 80. Due to the overall aging of society, the number of men seeking treatment over the next 20 years is expected to increase.

Why Holmium?

Tissue Removal
The holmium laser is ideal for precisely and cleanly ablating without charring or overheating tissue. Since the holmium absorption depth is only .5 mm or less, tissue is ablated faster than heat is conducted into surrounding tissue. Holmium energy is delivered in a pulsed mode with each pulse containing enough energy to vaporize the tissue. The vaporized tissue is removed before it can conduct heat, which minimizes thermal damage. The resulting what-you-see-is-what-you-get effect contrasts to the coagulating effects of Nd:YAG and KTP lasers whose wavelengths penetrate deeper and extend below the visible tissue surface.

Hemostasis
Hemostasis with holmium is remarkably good. Its localized coagulation effect seals the tissue and provides hemostasis superior to electrocautery instruments without producing deeper thermal injury ociated with Nd:YAG or KTP lasers. The holmium coagulating effect minimizes fluid absorption better than electrocautery.

The ablating and hemostasis features of holmium make it an excellent energy choice for BPH treatment. When stone fragmentation benefits are considered, the holmium laser is the best and most cost effective choice for treating both stone disease and BPH—two of the most common reasons patients visit the urologist.

Holmium Prostate Treatments
Since its introduction, holmium laser prostatectomy has undergone rigorous scientific studies that substantiate its surgical equivalence to the traditional electrocautery procedure (TURP) with fewer patient complications and faster patient return to normal activities. Whether performing holmium laser enucleation (HoLEP) or holmium laser ablation (HoLAP) of the prostate, the procedure can be done as a day case or in a 23-hour facility. HoLEP and HoLAP treatments offer many benefits including:

* Immediate removal of tissue and symptoms.
* Virtually bloodless and minimally invasive technique.
* Short catheterization time.
* Few complications.
* Short convalescence.
* Cost-effective solutions—hospitals gain unmatched economic benefits by utilizing the multipurpose holmium laser for stones, strictures, tumors AND BPH treatment.

Immune System
While most people believe that a stronger immune system is a better immune system, the truth is that what we really want is a strong and balanced immune system. A person suffering from allergies has an unbalanced immune system as does a person suffering from an autoimmune disease. Increasing the strength of the immune system without first balancing it can make symptoms worse than before. Beta sitosterol has been shown to both support an increase in immune function and balance immune function at the same time.

If you are a male age 50 or older, chances are you have experienced the cumbersome effects of an enlarged prostate.  Keep in mind that you have options to deal with the issue.  There are many options for enlarged prostate treatment.  The least invasive option is to keep a watchful wait on the condition.  Of course, this will be done with your doctor’s supervision to make sure the condition does not worsen or is not an affect of something more severe.  You can choose natural alternatives to try while you wait it out.  If that doesn’t work for you, your doctor can recommend certain alpha-blocker medications or even surgery to remove the excess tissue surrounding the prostate.
