- W4372348764 abstract "Introduction: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) refers to the nonmalignant growth of prostate gland. In Ayurveda, it can be correlated with Mutraaghata or Mutradosha. Currently used common oral medications such as 5α-reductase inhibitors, α1-Blockers as well as surgical treatment methods such as Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) have well-known side effects. Ayurveda case studies on BPH show evidence of a potential alternative to these current methods. Objectives: To conduct a survey to know the diagnostic methods and treatment modalities used by different Ayurveda Practitioners in BPH treatment. Materials & Methods: A survey comprising 7 questions in the form of multiple-choice questions on the diagnosis and treatment methods of BPH adopted by Ayurveda Physicians was done. The answers were recorded and interpreted in the form of graphs and pie charts. Results: A total of 57 different Ayurveda practitioners participated in the survey. Prevalence of BPH was seen more in the age group of 60-70 years. Ultrasonography (USG) and Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) were among the most commonly used diagnostic methods for BPH. Most common symptoms observed were increased frequency of urine, urine incontinence and urine urgency. Uttara Basti (administration of medicine through the urethra) was the most recommended type of treatment procedure preferred, followed by Matra Basti (enema). Avagaha Swedana (Sitz bath) was recommended by most practitioners. The course duration of treatment is advised to be around half to one month. Around 40-60% relief was claimed in patients with BPH by the participants. Conclusion: BPH is a condition that is currently being treated by various Ayurveda practitioners using classical treatment methods such as Uttara Basti, Matra Basti etc. with claimed relief of about 40-60% by the participants." @default.
