Enlargement of prostate is natural. It can not be reversed. If there is any infection underlying that shall be ruled out. UTI shall be treated and ittar basti would be helpful

In Ayurveda, **prostate enlargement** is often compared to **“Ashthila”** under Mutraghata (urinary disorders). Since the prostate size is 30 cc (just mildly enlarged), and symptoms are minimal (only nocturia—night-time urination), it’s a good stage to **prevent further enlargement and manage naturally** through diet, lifestyle, and herbs. --- ### ✅ **Ayurvedic Home Remedies & Herbs for Prostate Health (BPH)** 1. ### **Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa)** * **Action**: Diuretic, anti-inflammatory. * **Use**: Take *********** or *********** (1 tsp with warm water after meals). * **Benefit**: Reduces swelling in urinary tract and helps urine flow. 2. ### **Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris)** * **Action**: Urinary tonic, supports prostate function. * **Use**: *******1 tsp with warm water or milk at bedtime. * **Or**: Tablets like ********** – 1-2 tablets twice daily. 3. ### **Varuna (Crataeva nurvala)** * **Action**: Excellent for urinary tract health and preventing obstruction. * **Use**: *******(***form) – 15 ml with water twice daily before meals. 4. ### *********** * **Use**: 1-2 tablets twice a day after meals with lukewarm water. * **Benefit**: Reduces glandular swelling and prevents growth of tissues. 5. ### *****Resin or Capsules** * **Use**: 250–500 mg once daily with milk. * **Caution**: Ensure it's purified and from a trusted source. * **Benefit**: Rejuvenates urogenital system and supports aging men. --- ### 🍽️ **Dietary Guidelines for Prostate Health (as per Ayurveda)** **DOs:** * *****seeds** – 1 tbsp daily (rich in zinc; anti-inflammatory for prostate). * ******juice** – supports prostate health and detox. * *******(***)**, ****, ********– diuretic, soothing. * **Barley water** – reduces urinary inflammation. * **Warm water** – encourages good bladder health. * **Coriander or cumin seed water** – soak overnight, drink in morning. **DON’Ts:** * Avoid **spicy, fried, sour, and salty foods** – they aggravate Pitta & vitiate urinary tract. * Limit **red meat, alcohol, and smoking** – they aggravate prostate enlargement. * Avoid **excess dairy, curd at night**, and caffeinated drinks. Self medication. --- ### 🌿 Lifestyle Tips * **Don’t suppress urge to urinate** – worsens prostate swelling. * **Avoid prolonged sitting or constipation** – do mild walking/yoga. * **Practice Vajrasana** after meals and **Moola Bandha** (root lock – tightening pelvic floor) to improve prostate tone. --- ### 🧘‍♂️ Specific Yoga/Pranayama: * **Baddha Konasana (Butterfly pose)** * **Vajrasana** * **Moola Bandha** (pelvic floor contraction) * **Anulom Vilom & Sheetali pranayama** --- ### 🚫 When to Seek Further Attention If you notice: * Frequent urination even during the day * Poor urine stream * Blood in urine * Painful urination …consult a urologist, and consider repeat ultrasound & PSA. --- Would you like a customized herbal mix or tea suggestion for daily use?

For mild prostatomegaly (30 cc) with minimal symptoms, Ayurveda suggests herbs like Gokshura, Varuna, and Kanchanara for support. Warm water intake, avoiding cold or heavy foods at night, and reducing spicy/oily food helps. Please consult for a tailored herbal and diet plan for prostate health.
