Proscar

At iMedix, we understand that the bothersome urinary symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate (BPH), like frequent urination or a weak stream, can significantly impact a man's daily comfort and quality of life. Proscar (finasteride) is designed to address this common concern at its root by gradually shrinking the enlarged prostate gland itself. This action aims to relieve pressure on the urethra, thereby easing those disruptive symptoms and helping to restore a more normal urinary flow and a greater sense of well-being.

From the iMedix team's perspective, managing benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) effectively often involves addressing the hormonal factors that contribute to prostate growth. Proscar works as a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, specifically targeting the conversion of testosterone to DHT, a hormone that fuels prostate enlargement. By reducing DHT levels within the prostate, Proscar helps to decrease its size over time, offering a long-term approach to managing BPH symptoms and improving urinary function.
