Supplements do not work.
BPH is not an inflammation that can be treated.
Your prostate grows as you age and impinges on your urethra.
Treatments:
Medical
Tamsulosin and Cialis relax the muscles in the area leading to some relief with minor side effects.
5-ARIs - shrink the prostate over several months but come with unpleasant side effects.
Minimally invasive treatments:
Temporary/permanent stents - new to market.
Urolift - Not suitable for all gland sizes, not consistent/durable
PAE - Outpatient procedure. No side effects (other than a week of worsened symptoms) and good long term efficacy, lesser IPSS reduction than TURP
Aquablation - effective but longer recovery with catheter and high bleeding risk. Hospital stay & catheter during recovery.
Rezum - Outpatient procedure. Steam ablation of tissue. Not suitable for all gland sizes, not consistent/durable
TURP - Potential side effects include retrograde ejaculation, impotence and incontinence. Hospital stay & catheter during recovery.
Laser ablation/HOLEP Potential side effects include retrograde ejaculation, impotence and incontinence. Hospital stay & catheter during recovery.
Prostatectomy - Major surgery with associated risks. Serious side effects.
I had PAE in February and I am very satisfied with the results.
I had an Aquablation with the side effects you described. I still need to take finasteride and tamselosin. what is a PAE.
Supplements work for me.

Add low dose Cialis 5mg once a day.
I hated the BPH meds. All of them made me feel miserable. The above combination works like a charm.
There is also a product called Libidon that may be beneficial.

TURP worked for me. Went home the next day, no catheter, no pain. No side effects, no ongoing medications, still fine a year and a half later.
