Interesting study on potential natural remedy for patients with enlarged prostate related symptoms.
Pumpkin Seed Oil (Cucurbita Pepo) Versus Tamsulosin for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Symptom Relief: A Single-Blind Randomized Clinical Trial: doximity.com/newsfeed/7c6967…
Data from Italy showing 12% of all positive cases require ICU admission, much higher than China reported at 5%. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
Nice study from IU on PSA monitoring after HoLEP: PSA > 1 or PSAD > 0.1 after HoLEP significantly higher risk of PCa on biopsy.

If PSAD is that low often the prostate is going to be enlarged and if LUTS, signs/sx of obstruction then MRI would still be helpful from a BPH standpoint for surgical planning. In that case would argue can still get MRI which is more accurate than CT or TRUS for prostate size.

Would definitely be helpful in many ways, access/ease of treatment, avoiding patients wasting $$ on OTC supplements with no efficacy.
Could tamsulosin go over-the-counter? ow.ly/cC1X50xXd5W set up a simulated retail setting with patients. Over 90% of men made appropriate self-selection decisions. #LUTS
