🧬 WHAT CAUSES PROSTATE ENLARGEMENT — AND WHY YOU MUST ACT FAST

Research shows that more than 70% of men above age 40 will experience prostate enlargement — and 1 in 5 of them may end up needing surgery.

Enlarged prostate, also known as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), usually starts silently. You may think it’s just “old age” or “normal stress,” but it’s often caused by hormonal imbalance, particularly increased DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) — which triggers abnormal growth in prostate cells.

 WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE PROSTATE GROWS TOO LARGE?

The prostate sits just below your bladder and surrounds the urethra — the tube that carries urine out of the body. When the gland grows abnormally large, it begins to press on the urethra, causing frustrating and sometimes painful symptoms:

🔴 Difficulty passing urine
🔴 Weak or interrupted urine stream
🔴 Frequent urination (especially at night)
🔴 Urgency but little release
🔴 A constant feeling of incomplete emptying

 What Happens When It’s Not Treated?

The prostate surrounds your urethra — so as it grows, it blocks urine flow, putting pressure on your bladder and kidneys.

Here’s what that can lead to:

• 🔴 Constant urge to urinate — even after peeing

• 🔴 Frequent night urination (3–6 times)

• 🔴 Weak stream or interrupted flow

• 🔴 Painful urination or ejaculation

• 🔴 Blood in urine

• 🔴 Bladder stones or infections

• 🔴 Catheter use

• 🔴 Kidney damage

• 🔴 Costly, painful surgery

Don’t ignore these signs. The earlier you take control of your prostate health, the easier it is to shrink it naturally — before complications start.
