I would encourage looking into the following, for BPH:

Nettle root extract
Pygeum extract
Beta-sitosterol
Boron
Lycopene
Rye extract (flower pollen)
Cranberry extract
Mangosteen pericarp

Other remedies with studies include saw palmetto, but some studies have shown that to not be as useful as previously thought.

Please make sure your PSA score is in a reasonable range, too. It may be more than just BPH.

However, procedures or supplements to help with BPH also reduce the likelihood of prostate cancer, from what I’ve gathered, and it shows in reduced PSA scores, thankfully.

Thank you for the info. I’ll look into that. I’m currently taking FloMax, which helps. Yes, the urologist was roped into my situation a couple of years back. Heck, I’ve even seen the INSIDE of my bladder while he was scrounging around inside of me with that little camera on the end of a long wire thingee. Ouch...unpleasant memories.

The article you posted sounds promising. I’m including a link to the article in my calendar for my next urologist visit. Thank you!
