Treatment for Enlarged Prostate in Ridgewood
As men age, they may experience urinary issues and discomfort, including a common condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or an enlarged prostate. If left untreated, BPH can lead to complications such as infections or kidney damage. Fortunately, at American Prostate Centers in Queens, men in Ridgewood who are experiencing BPH symptoms have access to advanced, minimally invasive treatments that can significantly improve their quality of life and provide long-lasting relief. Our goal is to alleviate symptoms by blocking blood flow to the prostate and reducing its size through a procedure called prostate artery embolization (PAE). Our team of affiliated prostate specialists performs this outpatient procedure, which allows for a quick recovery with fewer side effects compared to traditional surgery.
One of the most effective and minimally invasive treatments for BPH is prostate artery embolization. We offer PAE near Ridgewood, which works by reducing blood flow to the prostate, causing it to shrink. Patients experience shorter recovery times, minimal pain, and a reduced risk of complications such as incontinence and sexual dysfunction—issues that are more common with traditional surgeries.
Unlike procedures like Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) or UroLift, PAE is suitable for patients with larger prostates and eliminates the need for a catheter during recovery. One year after PAE, 90% of patients report significant relief from their BPH symptoms, making it a great option for those looking for effective BPH treatment.
