A Real Evaluation
An enlarged prostate should not dictate your daily schedule or your sleep. If you find yourself mapping out bathroom breaks or waking several times a night, those symptoms are worth evaluating properly.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate that becomes more frequent with age. As the prostate grows, it can restrict urine flow and make the bladder work harder. At Center for Men's Health Rhode Island, we provide structured diagnostic evaluation and individualized management planning for lower urinary tract symptoms.
Are You Experiencing Any Of These Symptoms?
- Waking up 2+ times a night to urinate
- Weak, slow, or stopping-and-starting stream
- Sudden, urgent needs to find a bathroom
- Feeling like your bladder never fully empties
These symptoms are not specific to BPH. They can also arise from bladder, urethral, neurologic, medication-related, or other conditions, which is why clinical evaluation matters before assuming a cause.
Structured Clinical Evaluation
Evaluation may include symptom scoring with the IPSS, a focused history and physical examination, and laboratory or post-void residual testing when clinically indicated.
HOW WE APPROACH YOUR CARE
Structured evaluation and individualized management planning, with an emphasis on shared decision making.
STEP 02
Individualized Planning
Management may include lifestyle and behavioral measures or prescription medication when appropriate. If a procedural or surgical option is indicated, we coordinate referral to a urologist.
STEP 03
Ongoing Follow-Up
We reassess your symptoms over time, monitor for medication side effects including effects on sexual function, and adjust the plan or refer onward as your needs change.
