An enlarged prostate is common among men middle-aged and older. There are supplements, such as saw palmetto, pumpkin seed, and lycopene, that can help with urinary problems associated with enlarged prostate. Many men's formula vitamins contain some, or all of these. You should ask your doctor before any taking any supplement to treat enlarged prostate.

Your doctor can prescribe medications for enlarged prostate as necessary. Some of the more common prescription names are Flomax, Avodart, and Proscar.

Well-formulated prostate supplements have had successful reports, especially the ones that contain beta sitosterol. This nutrient, derived from plants, has been studied extensively and is known to support anti-aging of the prostate. It also supports healthy urinary flow and functions. I think that more doctors should start prescribing nutritional supplements for prostate health as men reach their 40s and 50s. This is much better than taking conventional medication for prostate support which has side effects in the long run. There is much information on the internet you can find on beta sitosterol.
