There are plenty of men who suffer with enlarged prostate symptoms.
This condition also commonly referred to as BPH, is just like any
other prostate symptom with either less or more severity. The causes
of this condition are not fully understood, but researchers are
working hard to understand the causes of this condition so that better
treatment options can be formed.
What is known is that men produce the male hormone testosterone
through out their lifetime. They also produce a small amount of the
female hormone estrogen. As a man gets older the amounts of active
testosterone lessen. This results in a higher level of estrogen in a
man's blood.
Some studies have shown that when there is estrogen that is at a
higher proportion, it may promote the growth of cells inside the
prostate which in turn can lead to BPH. Another theory that has been
tossed around regarding causes of enlarged prostate suggests the when
dihydrotestosterone or DHT accumulates a substance that can be found
from the testosterone within the prostate, may also promote cell
growth....
