If you already have an enlarged prostate, you can decrease its symptoms and prevent complications by taking the following steps:

• Drink hours before going to bed to avoid having to get up at night.
• Avoid certain foods - spicy and salty foods, alcohol, caffeine-rich beverages (coffee, tea, colas) and chocolate aggravate the symptoms of BPH.
