A medication used to treat erectile dysfucntion may help men suffering with a prostate problem.\u00a0 Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)\u00a0is a common problem for men\u00a0that is not often talked about.\u00a0 In its simplest form BPH is the\u00a0enlargement of the prostate.\u00a0 According to the Austin Urology Institute,\u00a0this condition\u00a0will affect approximately 50 percent of men between the ages of 51 and 60 and up to 90 percent of men over the age of 80.<\/p>\n
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia can cause several uncomfortable conditions for men in the bathroom, including trouble urinating and a burning sensation while going to the bathroom.\u00a0\u00a0Researchers are testing Cialis to treat the problems associated with the condition.<\/p>\n
Researchers, led by Claus G. Roehrborn, MD, with the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, studied 1,058 men from 10 countries. All of the men reported urinary symptoms from BPH for at least six months, whether or not they had a history of erectile dysfunction.\u00a0 The men were split into five groups and given various doses of Cialis over the course of 12 weeks.\u00a0\u00a0A majority of patients said their symptoms improved while taking Cialis.<\/p>\n
The study was published in the Journal of Urology.<\/p>\n
Doctors aren’t sure what causes BPH, but it may be connected to the changing levels of sex hormones in men as they age.\u00a0 According to the Mayo Clinic website, the prostate gland is the male organ that produces most of the fluid in semen and transports sperm.\u00a0 The urethra also runs through the prostate, so if it becomes enlarged the ability to pass urine through the urethra becomes difficult.\u00a0 The condition is often treated by medication, but surgery is sometimes suggested.\u00a0 There are several lifestyle changes that can help control the symptoms as well.\u00a0 According to the Mayo Clinic men can try drinking less at night, limiting alcoholic beverages, scheduling bathroom visits, and staying active to keep their symptoms at bay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A medication used to treat erectile dysfucntion may help men suffering with a prostate problem.\u00a0 Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)\u00a0is a common problem for men\u00a0that is not often talked about.\u00a0 In its simplest form BPH is the\u00a0enlargement of the prostate.\u00a0 According to the Austin Urology Institute,\u00a0this condition\u00a0will affect approximately 50 percent of men between the ages […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1949,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_autoblog_aioseo_focus_keyphrase":"","_autoblog_aioseo_title":"","_autoblog_aioseo_description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[47,1934],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1947","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cialis","category-prostate-health"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/doc.jpg\")
