An effective solution to the treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy

Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH), which is a gradual and normal growth of prostate tumor refers to 2 out of 3 men over 50. With the increase in volume, the prostate puts pressure on the urethra, causing various symptoms such as dysuria, urgency for urination, frequent urination with a small amount of urine and nocturia, which with time become increasingly troublesome. BPH is the accumulation of testosterone in the prostate, which under the influence of an enzyme (5-alpha-reductase) is converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), thereby inducing the proliferation of prostatic cells thus causing hypertrophy. Clinical studies have shown that frequent dose of about 320 mg Serenoa repens, reduces by 28% voiding symptoms and 23% of nocturia. The fruits of Serenoa repens inhibit the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, thereby reducing the stimulation and proliferation of prostate cells. Thus the volume of the prostate is reduced without any adverse effects. Also, the fruit of Serenoa repens helps in cases of androgenic alopecia.
