Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a very common disease of old male persons. Some recent epidemiological studies have revealed that to large extent lifestyle factors associated with metabolism including obesity, blood glucose, exercise, and diet also contribute substantially to the development of these conditions.

BPH is defined as an enlarged prostate gland that can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder.

The prevalence of BPH is age-dependent, with initial development usually after 40 years of age and more than 50% of men in their 60s and up to 90% of men in their 70s -80s years have some symptoms of BPH. The prostate gland increases in size as the age advances, making BPH one of the most common age-related conditions in men.

The most common causes for benign prostatic hyperplasia are given below –

Inflammation of the prostate (prostatitis)
Narrowing of the urethra (urethral stricture)

Urinary tract infections
Problems with nerves that control the bladder
Cancer of the prostate or bladder

What are the Signs and Symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia?

What is the Ayurvedic view of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia?

In Ayurveda, BPH is correlated with ‘Ashtheela’ or ‘Vatashtheeta’ and ‘Mutragranthi’. The term Ashtheela denotes the consistency of part like very hard and rounded in shape. The space between the rectum and urinary bladder leads to a hard (like stone), immobile and prominent growth. This growth, in turn, produces obstruction to the stool, urine and flatus, distention of the bladder, and pain over the suprapubic region. The description of Asthheela is more closely resembles with BPH rather than Mutragranthi.

It is usually an unpleasant surprise for males, which leads to infertility. This condition is seen in 1% of all males & 15% of infertile males.

What are the Two Types of Azoospermia & its Causes?

Azoospermia is divided into two categories:

1) Obstructive Azoospermia:

In obstructive azoospermia, sperms are produced inside the testicles. Obstruction or blockage is seen in the reproductive tubing that prevents the sperm to flow outside the world. The causes of obstructive azoospermia can be congenital, genetic, or acquired.

Other causes are:-

Vasectomy is a surgical procedure that interrupts the sperm ducts to stop the flow of sperm.
Congenital conditions: In this situation, some men are born with missing vas deferens other men are born with a cyst in the prostate that creates a blockage in ejaculatory ducts.
Infections: In this condition, infections of the testicles, prostate, or reproductive tract like epididymitis, prostatitis, orchitis, & venereal diseases like chlamydia take place. It can cause a blockage of the ejaculatory duct or small tubules of the epididymis.
Surgical complications: The procedures that are performed during surgery on the urogenital organs or hernia repair cause scarring that results in blockage.

2) Non-Obstructive Azoospermia:

Non-obstructive Azoospermia is a condition, in which the tubes are open, there is no production or low level of sperm production. This level is too much low that the sperm is not able to make the way out of the testicle.
The causes of non-obstructive azoospermia is abnormalities with the reproductive hormones or the testicles that control the production of sperm. It can be congenital, genetic, or acquired.

Genetic causes: The most common chromosomal problem that causes azoospermia in male is when there is an extra X chromosome (Klinefelter Syndrome). Another causes of azoospermia is deletion of Y-chromosome that is responsible for male characteristics. When one or more genes are deleted in the chromosomes it results in azoospermia. Most of the genetic issues produce small amounts of sperm within the testicles.
Hypospermatogenesis: This situation is found through routine semen analysis in which sperm production within the testicle are just at lower amounts than normal.
Varicocele: It is characterized by varicose veins around the testicle that causes male infertility.
Maturation arrest: It can occur at early or late stage of sperm maturation process.
