Water vapor therapy for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia – Non invasive day-care procedure

Water Vapor therapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia – Patient instructions

BPH or Benign prostatic hyperplasia is one of the most complaining issue in my office and it is gradually annoying urinary symptoms especially for the elderly male. The complaint can be manifested with a various kind of symptoms as following;

Symptoms suspected BPH.

  • Weak urinary stream which make straining habits
  • Inability to completely empty the bladder
  • Increased frequency urination at night and felt fatigue in the morning
  • Frequent to urinate
  • Urgent need to urinate
  • Dribbling and splitting stream while urination
BPH
Prostate gland is located between Bladder and Urethra

These symptoms might be a benign prostatic disease or we called it in a medical word.  “Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.” Basically, we’ve suspected this condition mostly in male whose age 50 years old up, you know why? Because there has been 3 fulfilled requirements for this.

  1. Male having the prostate gland
    • It will no longer occur in female or in some male who suffering from genetic disease that cause their prostates gone right?
  2. Male possess the male’s hormone – Androgen.
    • Androgen is an essential hormone that has been driven the prostatic growth. There is a classical literature shows that for some male who suffered from an androgen insufficiency syndrome at their birth, so they definitely no longer suffering from this at all.
  3. Aging progress
    • A tons of literatures trying to explain why BPH happens and all concluded about the aging progress as a fundamental figure to pull the trig in BPH. The prostate gland will increasing both in term of cell number and cell size, that’s why we actually doing measure the prostate gland size for those who suspected.

Well, now you realized that it’s like nobody can say the word “so long” with the BPH even me, an Urologist. From papers in the U.S. shows that 50% for men who are 50 years up, there will be 70% in men between 60 and 69 years old, and more than 80% in men who are 70 years which possibly could’ve suffered from the BPH. But there’s a little light shedding in the dark den even though we have no choice to get rid of BPH though, but we still have way to postpone and prolong the suffering from the BPH if we can protect ourselves against the following modifiable risk factors as below.

  1. Metabolic syndrome
    • There’s a strong evident papers shows that hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia  significantly increasing the prostate size
  2. Obesity
    • It is unclear related to the obesity, but it seems like obesity took part of increasing oxidative-stress particles inside the prostatic tissue

It just only the small aspect in BPH. But don’t be worried! I will keep adding more valuable information for you instantly and regularly. Some medical complications can be occurred from BPH, for example; Bladder infection or Acute urinary retention. If you have more questions or you need to make the discussion, feel free to text or PM me, initially.

I was in excruciating pain when I went to see Dr. Pommy, the Chief Urology Department, Royal Phnom Penh hospital in Cambodia at about 9:00 AM. He surprised me by telling me that I could be treated in the afternoon. After being hit with 7,000 shock waves, NO MORE kidney stone, and no more pain. At the same time, my creatinine levels returned to normal after the treatment that day. It was like killing two birds with one stone. I highly recommend lithotripsy treatment for kidney stones. The treatment was virtually painless and I had relief almost instantly. Dr. Pommy was very kind and professional in handling my health issues.

I underwent kidney lithotripsy removal surgery using a laser endoscope at this hospital. This Royal Phnom Penh Hospital is the only hospital in Cambodia that can perform this procedure, and I was transported to this hospital because other hospitals could not handle it. The doctor in charge was Dr. Soarawee Weerasopone, a member of the Department of Urology. This doctor was very kind and friendly, and even after I was discharged from the hospital, he used Line to take care of me a lot. In addition, there is a Japanese Help Deck here, and the staff used the Japanese very well and responded politely. The necessary documents for insurance coverage were also prepared immediately. I think this is a wonderful hospital.

I had problems with urine incontinence (active bladder) my life was a mess; I couldn’t sleep for 3 weeks, because every night as I lay down I get the urged but as soon I go the the toilet… Small stream and nothing. This was 8 – 10 times a night which effecting my overall health and well being, my quality of life went down hills. I found Dr Soarawee Weerasopone on the Google search. Chat with the doctor he patiently listen to my problems and give an answer. He ask me to come in for testing. 3 weeks later my symptom or ailments are gone.

Dr. Pommy is great!, On a recent routine check-up, I discovered a kidney stone and cyst on my kidney. I was advised to see Dr. Pommy for a follow-up, and i’m glad that I did as he is the premier urologist in my area (Cambodia). If you simply Google his name, his experience and credentials are the first things you encounter. Dr. Pommy is accessible and answered my questions in a well-thought and knowledgeable manner. He assured me that my new discoveries (stone and cyst) were nothing to worry about with a relatable explanation that broke down the science/results. He is very patient oriented, and is willing to answer any follow-up questions with further explanation. If you are in Asia (Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam), and in need of an expert opinion or consultation, Dr. Pommy is a great person to speak with.
