Rezum water vaper therapy helps men suffering from BPH. Check out Dr. Mehan on ABC15, Sonoran Living

As men age, they often experience excess growth of prostate tissue. This condition is called BPH or an enlarged prostate.
The prostate is a small gland located at the base of a man’s bladder, and the urethra passes through it. When extra prostate tissue develops, it obstructs and compresses the flow of urine from the bladder through the urethra. In severe cases, BPH can completely block the flow of urine.
Symptoms of BPH include:
A slow or weak urine stream
Difficulty starting urination
Disrupted flow while urinating
An urgent need to urinate
An increased need to urinate during the day and evening, as well as feeling that your bladder doesn’t empty with urination, are also typical symptoms.
BPH is a common condition that can negatively impact your quality of life. It affects at least 50% of men over age 50 and 90% over age 80.
Rezūm is a minimally invasive treatment that uses water vapor therapy to reduce excess prostate tissue. This treatment, delivered through the urethra, targets excess prostate tissue with the thermal energy in steam.
During a Rezūm transurethral needle ablation procedure, Dr. Rahul Mehan applies radiofrequency energy to a few drops of water inside a hand-held device. That creates steam.
When the doctor injects steam into the excess tissue in your prostate, the vapor immediately turns back into water. That causes immediate damage to the cells. Once damaged, the cells die and your body naturally reabsorbs them.
Rezūm offers several benefits for treating BPH, including:
Safe and effective symptom relief
Preservation of urinary and sexual function
Nonsurgical treatment without general anesthesia
Quick recovery times and fast results
Rezūm treatment can also reduce your need for BPH medications.
