UroLift: Innovative Relief for BPH
Understanding BPH
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition where the prostate gland enlarges as men age. It affects over 70% of men in their 60s, significantly impacting their quality of life. The prostate is a small, walnut-shaped gland that produces fluid for semen and surrounds the urethra, the tube responsible for carrying urine out of the body. As the prostate enlarges, it can compress the urethra, leading to bothersome urinary symptoms, including:
-
Frequent urination during the day and night
-
Weak or slow urinary stream
-
Difficulty starting urination
-
Feeling unable to completely empty the bladder
-
Urgency to urinate
-
A urinary stream that starts and stops
Although BPH is not cancerous and unrelated to prostate cancer, it can disrupt daily life and well-being.
What Is the UroLift System?
The UroLift® System is a groundbreaking, minimally invasive treatment for BPH. It works by lifting and holding the enlarged prostate tissue away from the urethra, eliminating the blockage without cutting, heating, or removing tissue. This innovative procedure offers effective symptom relief without compromising sexual function, allowing patients to quickly resume daily activities. Clinical studies confirm its safety and efficacy, with noticeable improvements in urinary symptoms.
Most patients experience mild side effects, such as:
-
Light blood in the urine
-
Discomfort during urination
-
Temporary pelvic discomfort
-
Increased urinary urgency
These effects typically resolve within 1-2 weeks.

How the UroLift System Works
The UroLift procedure is simple and performed by a skilled urologist. Tiny implants are strategically placed to separate the prostate lobes, relieving pressure on the urethra and restoring normal urine flow. This outpatient procedure typically allows patients to return home the same day without needing a catheter.
