I would like to ask the community if anyone has found anything new over the last 5 years that can help shrink the prostate to help frequent urination at night. I have read articles over the past 10 years that talk about natural supplements but with very little proof that they actually work. I don\’t want to take medications because of the effect they have on the liver and kidneys.

Thanks 007 for the question! From myself and feedback from others, The things I have noticed that work best are natural. Frequent exercise (see article above) Lots of fluids and regular vitamin supplements to keep things flushing, limit alcohol consumption (if you do drink – drink lots fluids as alcohol causes inflammation) generally staying active and limit sitting for long periods which puts pressure on prostate. I will ask around about other natural supplements as well.

WeHeal is providing incredible value with our customized treatment and clinical trial searches for every patient! The results below were found for a 65 yr old male in Southern CA, but remember that results are custom and vary from patient to patient. Nonetheless these trials are definitely some of the most advanced treatments available and every metastatic prostate cancer patient should know about them! We can even negotiate on behalf of the patient to see if expenses such as transportation and / or lodging can be covered.
