I personally have this medical problem. I have had two prostate biopsies. Luckily both showed no cancer. Urinary frequency, urgency, and difficulty getting started are symptoms of this problem. I research extensively alternates to drugs and surgery and presently am on a successful regime to avoid both.

Prescription drugs or surgery is an option. I prefer neither, 20% of surgical candidates need another repeat operation within 10 years. Prescription medicines can cause decreased libido and impotence.

There are supplements that can reduce the symptoms of an enlarged prostate: selenium, lycopenes, saw palmetto and other natural substances can help prostate disease.
