Medax Vijayashree Hospitals
Urology & Prostate Specialty Center
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is an age-related non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland affecting men over 50 years. Symptoms like poor urinary stream, frequent nighttime urination (nocturia), urinary hesitancy, feeling of incomplete bladder emptying, and sudden acute urinary retention can severely impair quality of life.
At Medax Vijayashree Hospitals in Jigani, Bangalore, our Urology Department provides comprehensive prostate evaluation using computer uroflowmetry, transrectal/pelvic ultrasound prostate volume measurement, and Serum PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) testing to rule out prostate malignancy.
