The most basic treatment for BPH is “watchful waiting”, which means doing nothing more than keeping an eye on the situation, typically by returning to the doctor routinely for examinations to make sure the disease has not taken a turn for the worse.
Not taking aggressive action, however, does not mean sitting back and throwing down the pizza and beer. You should still take immediate steps to improve the health of your prostate by following The Prostate Diet and the 6 Pillars of Prostate Health that have been shown to reduce the risk of developing BPH or allowing the disease to progress to a more advanced form. This includes maintaining a healthy weight, focusing on low-fat foods, enjoying lots of fruits and vegetables, managing stress and exercising regularly as well as many other healthy changes to your lifestyle and dietary habits.
