About the condition

Plain-language background from MedlinePlus (National Library of Medicine), not coding guidance.

Enlarged Prostate (BPH)

The prostate is a gland in the male reproductive system. It lies just below the bladder. It makes fluid that is part of semen. An enlarged prostate is when your prostate gland becomes larger than normal. It's also called benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH for short. Benign means not cancer. And hyperplasia means too much cell growth. BPH isn't cancer and it doesn't increase your risk of getting prostate cancer.
