#011 - Bladder Health: The Silent Consequences of an Enlarging Prostate

In this episode, we dive deep into the often-overlooked connection between prostate enlargement and bladder health. Just as high blood pressure can silently lead to heart failure, an enlarging prostate can cause the bladder to work overtime—often without symptoms for years.

Join us as we explore the silent compensation of the bladder, the mechanisms behind bladder wall thickening, and why being proactive is crucial to preventing irreversible changes. Our expert urologist discusses how early intervention can help avoid chronic overactive bladder and bladder muscle weakness, ultimately preserving quality of life.

• How the bladder compensates for an enlarged prostate
• Why bladder wall thickening can be compared to heart muscle changes in high blood pressure
• The dangers of waiting until symptoms appear
