There is a term Dhatu Kshay that pertains to immunity compromise by excess semen loss. Once immunity is compromised you are prone to contraction of any disease. So increase your Oj Bala or vyadhikshmatv or immunology by fresh food intake, exercise, pranayam, meditation and use of herbs. Avoid excess masturbation.

At your age its less likely prostate will be the problem. Rule out other causes if you have any lower urinary tract symptoms. And now a days prazopress is hardly prescribed for prostate enlargement as other good alternatives are available. Visit your urologist. And you can take ivermectin for whatever reason prescribed as per your doctors advise.

This drug may not work in many patients, you need to be in continuous consultation with your urologist. You can try for one month and see, watch for side effects. If this does not work then you might need to empty your bladder using intermittent self catheterisation every 3-4 hourly.

General Physician•Delhi

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (bph) — also called prostate gland enlargement — is a common condition as men get older. An enlarged prostate gland can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder. It can also cause bladder, urinary tract or kidney problems.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
