When medications aren’t enough to tame an enlarged prostate, what comes next? In Part 1 of this two-part episode, Dr. Mills is joined by fellow UCLA urologist Dr. Kymora Scotland to break down the growing menu of procedures for BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia), from the longtime standard TURP to minimally invasive options like UroLift, iTind, Optilume and Rezūm. They explain how prostate size, recovery time, ejaculation, fertility and potential side effects can determine which treatment makes the most sense. Plus, Dr. Scotland explains why, for most men, choosing a procedure is less about finding the single “best” option and more about finding the right one for their priorities.
