The normal prostate size varies with age. In young men (ages 20-30), the prostate typically measures about 20-25 grams. By middle age (around 40-60 years), it may increase to 30-40 grams, and in older men (over 60), it can grow to 40-60 grams or more due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It's important to note that individual variations exist, and prostate size alone isn't a definitive indicator of health.
Hypertrophy of the prostate (BPH) is a condition in which there is a non-cancer abnormal growth of prostate cells in number and size. It is an usual condition which comes with ages, i.e. when you reach your 50s your prostate will get enlarged.

There are a few different types of medications which are used to reduce the size of the prostate. The first type are alpha blockers, such as Flomax, which work by relaxing the muscles of the prostate and increasing urine production which can reduce the swelling. The second type of medications are called 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, such as Avodart which reduce prostate swelling and can prevent further growth.
