Finasteride effectively reduces symptoms of enlarged prostate with minimal side effects.
research Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate, shrinks it, improves urination, but may cause sexual dysfunction and isn't for women or children.
research Measurement of tamsulosin in human serum by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
A reliable method was created to measure tamsulosin in human blood.
research Dihydrotestosterone and the Concept of 5α–Reductase Inhibition in Human Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Blocking the enzyme that turns testosterone into DHT can safely and effectively treat enlarged prostate.
research Pathogenetic justification of the use of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
5-alpha reductase inhibitors help with benign prostatic hyperplasia but don't cure it, and more research is needed.
research Saw Palmetto
Saw palmetto is not proven to improve urinary flow, prostate size, or hair loss.
research 5ARI and PSA: open questions
5ARI treatment improves PSA test accuracy for prostate cancer diagnosis.
research Serenoa repens (saw palmetto) for Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS): The Evidence for Efficacy and Safety of Lipidosterolic Extracts. Part III
Saw palmetto extract is effective and safe for treating lower urinary tract symptoms, working as well as certain medications, and works even better in severe cases.
research Cosmeceuticals
Isotretinoin and tazarotene help treat acne, while minoxidil and finasteride promote hair growth.
research Inositol hexaphosphate alleviates ototoxicity and age‐related hearing loss by preserving cochlear hair cells in mice
Inositol hexaphosphate helps protect hearing by preserving ear cells in mice.
research Every TURP Is not Just BPH

research Neuropsychological Assessment in Elderly Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Treated with Dutasteride
Dutasteride does not impair mental function in elderly men with enlarged prostate.
research The Risk of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) in Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Treated with 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors (5ARIs).
Men using 5-alpha reductase inhibitors for prostate issues may have a slightly higher risk of blood clots.
research Many sexual adverse effects of finasteride are attributable to a nocebo effect
Finasteride's sexual side effects may be due to nocebo effect.
research Are PSA adjustments necessary for prostate cancer screening in men taking finasteride for hair loss?
Finasteride for hair loss lowers PSA levels, so PSA values need adjusting when screening for prostate cancer.
research Marked Suppression of Dihydrotestosterone in Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia by Dutasteride, a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Dutasteride more effectively lowers DHT levels in men with enlarged prostates than finasteride.

research Three-Month Treatment With a Long-Acting Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist of Patients With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: Effects on Tissue Androgen Concentration, 5α-Reductase Activity and Androgen Receptor Content*
A three-month treatment with a GnRH agonist significantly lowered androgen levels and 5α-reductase activity in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Ejaculations and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: An Impossible Compromise? A Comprehensive Review
Men with BPH should discuss potential sexual side effects with doctors before treatment, as some treatments can affect ejaculation.
research Finasteride, not tamsulosin, increases severity of erectile dysfunction and decreases testosterone levels in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia
Finasteride worsens erectile dysfunction and lowers testosterone in men with enlarged prostates, unlike tamsulosin.
research Why Odds Ratios Can Be Tricky Statistics
Odds Ratios can be misleading; it's better to also present risk and Relative Risks for clarity.
