Expert: Dr. Man Tran, Ph.D., D.C., L.Ac. - 6/4/2009

Question
My brother has enlarged prostate. he has taken saw palmetto, lycopene, fish oil, etc.  do you have any suggestions on herbal treatments instead of taking medicines? He would prefer not to undergo surgery if possible.
Thanks and regards

Answer
Hi KN,

There are various causes to an enlarged prostate.  Depending on the root of the problem, certain Chinese herbs can help.  This would depend on the diagnosis of your condition.  I would suggestion for you to consult an acupuncturist or Chinese herbalist to have the appropriate herbs.
