That's horrible. First time I'd heard it.
I'm 54, no serious prostate problems yet but a few bouts with enlargement and frequent peeing. It's no fun, you have to go way more often and it takes longer to run out the fluid ounce or two you just can't hold any more.
I kept reading about the benefits of
Saw Palmetto berry extract/powder as a natural remedy so after some research, I tried it. Stuff actually works, as God is my witness. Plenty of endorsements for it from many quarters.
Formulas of it are available including a few other ingredients reputed to help, such as the African herb Pygeum, zinc, and sometimes pumpkin seed extract. Pumkin seeds have long been touted as a remedy. Check Costco, Whole Foods, etc. No need to pay top dollar to some TV or direct mail pitchman.
Life is much better for me when I stick to the stuff. Often I make it through the entire night with no getting up to pee whereas at my worst point, it was 3 or 4 times a night.
Thanks for sharing, kip. It's in we men's future in some form, likely as not, all of us.
