Enlargement of the prostate gland is called Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. Urethra which carries urine is surrounded by the prostate gland. When the gland gets bigger it blocks the urethra causing difficulties while urinating. Usually, men of all age are prone to this. Benign enlargement is not cancerous. Usually, it is caused by advancing age and cell growth.

Diagnosis of BPH
At first, the doctor will ask about symptoms and do the physical exam which includes Digital rectal exam, urine test, blood test, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test and neurological exam. After that doctors will recommend advanced tests like Urinary flow test, Postvoid residual volume test, and 24-hour voiding diary to conform to the condition.
Laser Prostate Surgery
This surgery is used to relieve symptoms caused by the enlargement of the prostate. In surgery, the doctor will insert a scope through the penis into the urethra. Then the laser is passed through the scope to reduce or remove the tissues that are obstructing urine flow. The laser removes tissues through ablation ( melting) or enucleation ( cutting away excess tissue ). Different types of laser surgery are Photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP), Holmium laser ablation of the prostate (HoLAP) and Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP).
