Keeping A Healthy Lifestyle: BPH (Enlarged Prostate) Edition

June is Men’s Health Month! Show us your blue and help us spread awareness of BPH (prostate enlargement) by reading and sharing this article, as well as your thoughts. 

Men, during the initial peak of the global pandemic, many doctor’s offices were closed temporarily. You may have been previously diagnosed with BPH (prostate enlargement) by your doctor or you suspect that your frequent urination and slow/poor urinary flow symptoms are being caused by BPH. Earlier this year, it may have been hard for you to get a doctor’s appointment to have your prostate checked out (as supportive as telemedicine is, digital rectal exams currently can’t be performed through the screen).  In the meantime, whether you currently struggle with BPH or suspect that you do, a healthy lifestyle can help you begin to manage symptoms or even keep them from getting worse in the case of mild BPH.

Some people use preventative medicine, or they believe that healthy lifestyle choices in and of themselves are a form of preventative medicine to reduce risk of certain disease states. Although the growth of the prostate later in life that causes BPH is not currently preventable by today’s medicine and medica1 technology, it can be managed safely when caught early. This is why it’s important to have awareness early on rather than find out that BPH exists long after your diagnosis. 

The later on you catch or decide to address your BPH, the more likely it is that you may need medicated or surgical intervention, both of which usually carry a higher risk for side effects and complications. 

A healthy lifestyle can reduce the negative impacts of BPH in your day to day life. This includes safely practiced physical activity like walking, jogging and swimming. It also includes nutritionally balanced diets and portions of the recommended food groups. Reducing or avoiding irritants of the bladder like spicy foods, caffeinated beverages and alcohol can benefit the relationship between your bladder and prostate. 

Drinking water during the day and less at night can also help reduce the thickness of urine in the bladder and make urination less painful and irritating to the bladder. 

Double voiding techniques and pelvic floor exercises may support feelings of incontinence, urges and struggle to push out urine associated with BPH.

Clinically proven natural treatments that have been responsibly researched and that are deemed safe by naturopathic physicians or TCM practitioners may also be worth consideration to include as complementary support to your current regimen. As an example, check out this clinical trial of UMOOZE https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02313233

With Father’s Day around the corner, you can show the father, uncle, brother, friend or partner in your life who that his health matters. If nothing else, show yourself that you matter!

The Pause on Men's Health and Pride Month

With the current global pandemic as well as the global outrage from the unjust murder of George Floyd in the U.S., many people are trying to balance staying safe from COVID-19 while having their voices and actions ensure that what happened to George Floyd and to many other members of the black community can never happen again. We condemn the excessive force that has unfairly impacted black communities, as well as the imbalance of available resources (health, education, employment, etc.) for black people in the U.S. 

Although in previous years, this time of the year has been dedicated to raising awareness of men's health (for us, BPH/prostate enlargement awareness specifically) and celebrating pride month for the LGBT community, we understand that it can be difficult to think or care about men's health issues and LGBT issues while the pandemic and protests are happening.   

We ask that as citizens of the world, you take the time to support yourself in body and mind, as well as those around you who may choose to stay home for their immune health or choose to go outside and exercise their right to a peaceful protest. Please stay safe and avoid resorting to violent forms of protest such as looting and destruction, as those actions move the conversation away from what's really important. 

George Floyd was a father, and unfortunately Father's Day won't be the same this year for his family without him. Cherish and support your fathers this year for the sake of the families who can't. Support them emotionally and also hold them accountable to care for their men's health.

If you have a family member who is in the LGBT community, show them love and support and celebrate their truth and identity. Compassion and understanding are important for their emotional and physical health as well. 

Hopefully next year the world will be in a better situation, and we can continue progress in the men's health and LGBT communities. Until then, stay safe, stay healthy, and take action responsibly whenever possible.  

If you live in the U.S., you can contact your local authorities about the 8 Can't Wait proposal that ensures policing policies can be carried out fairly on 8cantwait.org 

MTF Transgender Women and BPH (A Men's Health and Pride Month Topic)

A transgender woman is a person who was born biologically male (of the male sex) with male sexual organs, who then transitions to represent their true selves, the female gender. MTF (male to female) refers to the transition from a person with male biology to a person who affirms their gender as female. Sometimes what we tend to forget is, regardless of whether or not a transgender woman has undergone gender-affirmation surgery or hormone therapy, she may still have a prostate gland. As transgender women get older, there have been cases reported of prostate health issues arising. This is why knowing about conditions in the prostate such as BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia), the medical term for prostate enlargement, is relevant to not only men.

June is Men's Health Month and Pride Month. Men's Health Month raises awareness of conditions related to mental health, the prostate, testicles, and penis because these are conditions known to affect the male biology. In addition Pride Month celebrates the progress of the LGBT community as well as offers support during difficult times of mental health, societal issues, and physical health as well. Women are also very much a part of the men's health community because the men in their lives also need women's support. Not only that, but transgender women may have biologically male anatomy, so the knowledge spread in Men's Health Month can serve to benefit them as well. 

BPH is usually accompanied by uncomfortable lower urinary tract symptoms known as LUTS, which include frequent urination, poor or slow urinary flow, struggle to start and stop flow, pushing or straining, sensation of remaining urine in the bladder, urges, hesitancy, and incontinence. Sexual dysfunction may also occur. Not many people know this condition by the name BPH, but getting up at night frequently to go to the bathroom and the aforementioned urinary discomfort by prompt a visit to the doctor, followed by a BPH diagnosis. 

Healthy lifestyle modifications and practices for bladder relief may support those who have mild BPH, as well as natural complementary treatments which clinically backed data to support BPH patients. 

If you're a transgender woman, although you may not like to think about having a male gland like the prostate, it's important that you take care of all areas of your health so you can continue to live in your truth and live a good quality of life! 

Men, Be Proud of Who You are and of Your Health!

June is Men’s Health Month as well as Pride Month. For the men who embraced their identities and were able to safely share their truth to the world, know you are celebrated! For the men who cannot safely share their truth, you are celebrated and not alone, and we hope your time comes too. For the men who support their fellow men no matter what, we celebrate you! For everyone who shares positive messages during men’s health month and pride month, we thank you! 

For older men of all orientations and identities, as well as older people with male sexual organs who may not necessarily identify with the male gender, we want to raise awareness of the importance of your prostate health, particularly when it comes to BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia). This is the medical term for prostate enlargement. If you have a prostate gland, over time it may grow and interfere with your urinary and sexual health. As the prostate enlarges, it may push against the bladder and squeeze the urethra into becoming more narrow. The risk of developing BPH may increase due to age, nutrition, hormonal activity, family history, etc. 

If you are getting up many times to go to the bathroom, or you are finding it difficult or slower to urinate, talk to your doctor. 

Men, have you gotten your prostate checked? 

Gay men, have you gotten your prostate checked? 

Bisexual men, have you gotten your prostate checked? 

MTF transgender community, have you gotten your prostate checked? 

Non-binary people with male sexual organs, have you gotten your prostate checked? 

Asexual men, have you gotten your prostate checked? 

Queer men, have you gotten your prostate checked? 

You matter, and your health matters too! BPH education, support groups and solutions are out there so you can live a good quality of life managing your BPH. Sharing information responsibly, talking to your doctors and specialists (family doctor, urologist, gerontologist, pelvic floor specialist, naturopathic doctor, and TCM practitioners) may offer more insight to safe lifestyle adjustments to reduce the negative impact of BPH. This Men’s Health Month and Pride Month, let’s celebrate and encourage progress in better health and inclusive communities!
