For Men's Health Awareness Month 2021, Medical Channel Asia invited Dr Chua Wei Jin, a senior consultant urologist at National University Hospital, to walk us through the topic of BPH - also known as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, a condition where the prostate grows in size, blocking or reducing the flow of urine out of the body.

With Dr Chua is his patient, Mr Vijaya, who shared with us his perspective of living with BPH - the symptoms, his struggles as well as his subsequent road to recovery with "water vapour therapy".

Here are some of the questions that were addressed which you can jump right into:
1. What is BPH? -- 0:33
2. What are the symptoms of BPH? -- 0:52
3. When should you see a doctor for BPH? -- 3:05
4. What are the available treatment options for BPH? -- 3:32
5. Mr Viaya's experience with taking medications for BPH. -- 5:19
6. Mr Vijaya's experience with "Water Vapour Therapy". -- 7:34
