Blessing Health System to host free webinar on enlarged prostate treatment options

QUINCY — Blessing Health System will host a free online educational seminar on Tuesday, Nov. 18, focusing on benign prostatic hyperplasia, commonly known as an enlarged prostate, and minimally invasive surgical options available to manage the condition. Designed primarily for men ages 55 to 80, the live virtual session begins at 6 p.m. and will be led by Dr. Bradley Holland, a board-certified urologist with Blessing Health System. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a noncancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that frequently affects aging men and can lead to disruptive lower urinary tract symptoms, such as frequent or urgent urination, weak urine flow, and difficulty emptying the bladder. During the presentation, Holland will outline the underlying causes of the condition, discuss how physicians evaluate symptom severity, and review current medical and surgical management options.
