Answers:

  • As a person gets older the prostate may get enlarged. There is no way to stop or prevent this enlargement. In some cases, the prostate would enlarge due to some infection. Excess water intake will help to prevent the infection.

    Men over age 40 would have a greater risk of developing an enlarged prostate due to the obese median lobe. The enlarged prostate squeezes the urethra, which slows or stops the flow of urine, making it difficult for men to urinate, resulting in the symptoms such as frequent urination, straining to urinate, a weak urine stream, and a sensation that the bladder has not completely emptied.
