Ditch the Pills

Better BPH relief awaits.

Medication Is Often the First Step. But It’s Not the Only One.

Most men with BPH are managed with daily medication — sometimes indefinitely. If you’re still experiencing symptoms, or looking for an alternative to lifelong pills, there may be more options worth exploring.

Treat me in the office, not the OR — FloStent is designed for delivery in a clinical office setting, without surgery or general anesthesia
Free me from daily pills — FloStent is being studied as a device-based alternative for men who want more than medication management
Get me back to my life, fast — The FloStent system is designed to minimize recovery time and preserve future treatment options

Let's Check under the Hood.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common, non-cancerous condition in which the prostate gland enlarges over time. The prostate is a walnut-sized gland located below the bladder and in front of the rectum that produces part of the fluid in semen. As men age, the prostate can gradually grow larger due to hormonal changes (particularly involving dihydrotestosterone, or DHT).

BPH is one of the most frequent health concerns for men as they get older. While it is less common before age 40, it becomes increasingly prevalent in the 35–65 age group:

By age 50, roughly 50% of men show some degree of prostate enlargement.
By age 60, the figure rises to about 70–80%.

The condition itself is benign (not cancerous and does not increase the risk of prostate cancer), but it can significantly affect quality of life if the enlarged prostate presses on the urethra and interferes with urine flow.
