Enlarged Prostate (BPH) – Stork Hospital, Hyderabad
Comprehensive Care for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Advanced laser and minimally invasive solutions to restore normal urinary function and long-term prostate health.
An enlarged prostate, medically referred to as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), is a non-cancerous increase in the size of the prostate gland, commonly seen in men over 50. The prostate encircles the urethra, and when it grows in size, it can squeeze the urinary passage, leading to problems such as a weak urine stream, frequent trips to the bathroom, or difficulty starting urination. At Stork Multispecialty Hospital, Hyderabad, our urology experts offer a full spectrum of BPH treatments — from early diagnosis and medical management to advanced laser and minimally invasive surgical options — all tailored to the patient’s individual needs.
Causes and Risk Factors
Prostate enlargement is primarily linked to aging and hormonal shifts. Key risk factors include:
Signs and Symptoms

- Frequent urination, particularly at night (nocturia)
- Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying after urination
