As you get older, your prostate gland grows larger in size. This process is called benign prostatic hypertrophy, or BPH. As a result of this enlargement, your bladder has to work harder to force urine past the large prostate gland. A quarter of all men, aged 40 - 60, will suffer from some symptoms of BPH. By the time they are 70, 70% will have symptoms. By the time they are 80, 80% will have symptoms. In the UK, 78,000 new cases of BPH are diagnosed every year |
