Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a very common condition in men in which the prostate enlarges with age, narrowing the urethra and causing urinary symptoms. The prevalence rises with age, affecting about 50% of men in their 50s and 60% of men in their 60s. Without treatment, it can lead to complications such as acute urinary retention or kidney failure, so if you have symptoms, please consult a urologist.2026-06-26

Neurogenic bladder is a condition in which a problem in the nervous system, such as the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves, prevents the bladder from storing or emptying urine properly. Symptoms are often mild at first and easy to overlook, but without treatment, serious complications such as urinary tract infection and kidney failure can occur. If you have an underlying condition such as stroke or diabetes mellitus, please have your bladder function checked regularly.2026-06-26

Urinary incontinence does not occur only in women; it also occurs in men, and the number of men with urinary incontinence is increasing with population aging and a rise in prostate disease. It often occurs after prostate surgery or because of benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), diabetes, and similar conditions. It can be managed with proper care, including Kegel exercises, drug treatment, and, when necessary, surgical treatment, so please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26
