I'm 33 and dealing with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. I have urethra pain, a weak urine stream, incontinence, and feel like my bladder never fully empties. I've been taking Tab Alfoo and Urotone for 20 days but barely see any improvement. Is surgery the only way to treat BPH? How can I manage this long-term without stressing too much about it?
