Enlarged Prostate and Prostatitis

Barry, aged 30 years, suffered from an enlarged prostate and prostatitis. His main symptoms were a burning sensation on urination and frequency of urination.

Barry's treatment consisted of:

  • a general multivitamin and mineral supplement with the addition of:
    • vitamin E,
    • evening primrose oil,
    • zinc and
    • selenium.
  • herb for the enlarged prostate - saw palmetto.
  • herbs for the prostatitis, as well as promoting lymphatic drainage:
    • bearberry,
    • couch grass,
    • echinacea,
    • horsetail and
    • hydrangea.

At his first follow up visit he reported a decrease in the frequency and burning sensation. However, during the month he had a bout of pharyngitis which he had antibiotics for. He was treated with additional lymphatic and liver cleansing herbs - dandelion, additional echinacea, sabal serrulata and wahoo. He was also advised to take acidophilus bacteria to restore the bowel flora following the antibiotics.

The pain, burning and frequency disappeared after three months of treatment.
