Prostate hypertrophy is mainly treated with drugs, and the most commonly used drugs are two categories, as follows: first, it is called prostate weight loss for short, and the representative drug is finasteride. Generally, after three months of use, the prostate volume starts to shrink, which can be reduced by up to 30%. Second, drugs are called prostate gymnastics, and the representative drugs are alpha receptor antagonists, such as tamsulosin.
