If the symptoms of BPH are affecting the quality of your life, it is time to seek treatment. Some examples are if you are losing sleep because you need to wake during the night to urinate, you are unable to delay urination, have hesitancy, or a weak urine stream. There are a number of treatments to choose from. The most common forms of treatment have been drug therapy or surgery. However, medication is not always effective, cost hundreds of dollars per year, and may cause unwanted side-effects.
Surgery removes the enlarged prostate tissue but requires anesthesia and hospitalization.
Cooled ThermoTherapy, also known as transurethral microwave thermotherapy, delivers precise energy to destroy enlarged prostate tissue while unique cooling mechanisms protect healthy, surrounding tissue. As one of the most effective treatments for BPH, Cooled ThermoTherapy uses patented microwave technology and proprietary cooling that increases patient comfort and minimizes complications. Cooled ThermoTherapy is better than a lifetime of medication, less invasive than surgery, and more cost-effective than both. The unique cooling, only offered with the Prostatron and Targis Systems, relieve the symptoms of enlarged prostate safely and effectively. Cooled ThermoTherapy, designed to maximize patient comfort, requires a single office visit for a full treatment.
