My dad is 76 and has had prostate urine problems for 2 months. The doctor said his prostate is enlarged to 50cc but his PSA levels are normal. He's not ready for surgery because he's stressed about it. What medicines can help shrink his prostate size or are there other options we should consider

For a 76-year-old with an enlarged prostate (50cc) and normal PSA, medical management is a good first step. Alpha-blockers like tamsulosin can help relieve urinary symptoms, and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors like finasteride or dutasteride may help reduce prostate size over time. Minimally invasive procedures are also an option if medication fails and surgery is not preferred.
