Enlarged Prostate ......questions
Posted: 08-03-06 14:04pm

I am a normal male 46 years of age.
I am experiencing an enlarged prostate. It is a hereditary problem. I had experienced a slight discomfort in urination for a period of one week about 4 months ago. A doctors exam confirmed the elarged prostate. Once it is enlarged is there anything to decrease the enlargement once it is enlarged. I have not taken any medications , but I have ceased coffee intake and lowered my intake of spicy foods.
I currently have no pain or problems in urination and I have had no problems in sexual performance so far. Should I decrease my sexual activity ? Will an increase in activity increase the problem.
I recently heard of the kegel exercise. Would this exercise hurt or help an enlarged prostate. Is any type of exercise helpful in reducing the prostate size.

Are medications the only cure? If I take medicines should it be when I experience pain or should it be taken daily. Is there a diet I should follow ? What advice can you suggest for this problem f.G. M.X.
