In the medical community, it is unclear as to the cause of BPH, but there are many factors that can trigger or coincide with symptoms, such as:
⭐ Being over the age of 40 puts you at a higher risk for BPH
⭐ Genetic connection (someone in your family has an enlarged prostate or prostate cancer)
⭐ Treatments for other medical conditions
⭐ Being overweight
⭐ Having other medical conditions at the same time, such as a urinary tract infection, kidney stones, prostatitis, or cancer of the kidney or bladder
