RIVEA Vascular Institute | 04 July 2025

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate, is a common age-related condition that can significantly affect urinary health and quality of life in men over 50.

Dr. Arjun Reddy, Chief Interventional Radiologist at RIVEA Vascular Institute, explains the early signs of prostate enlargement, why the condition develops, and the treatment options available today.

The discussion highlights:

• Common symptoms such as frequent urination, weak urine flow, and disturbed sleep
• How prostate enlargement affects bladder function and daily life
• Why early evaluation is important
• Medical, surgical, and minimally invasive treatment options for BPH
• The growing role of Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE) as a non-surgical alternative

The feature also raises awareness about modern prostate care approaches that can help patients find relief with reduced recovery time and without major surgery.
