At what age does Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH) typically occur?

Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH) commonly occurs in men over the age of 50. This condition, characterized by the enlargement of the prostate gland, is typically attributed to hormonal changes as men age. The incidence and severity of BPH symptoms tend to increase with advancing age, making the age of 50 a significant threshold where many men begin to experience related urinary symptoms, such as increased frequency, urgency, and difficulty in urination. While BPH can occur in younger men, it becomes increasingly prevalent after this age, aligning with the data and clinical experiences observed in the field.
