What is a prostatic cyst?
Disease description:
I’ve been experiencing severe urinary frequency over the past two days, and I always feel weak during urination—my urine stream has become notably thin. After examination at the hospital, I was diagnosed with a prostatic cyst. I’d like to know what a prostatic cyst is and how it should be managed.

Hello,
Prostatic cysts are cystic changes in the prostate gland caused by either congenital or acquired factors.
Upon diagnosis of a prostatic cyst, prompt medical evaluation and treatment at a hospital are essential. Additionally, adopting healthy lifestyle and dietary habits is highly recommended. Congenital causes arise from narrowing of the prostatic glands during embryonic development, whereas acquired causes are typically linked to unhealthy lifestyle and dietary habits.
We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a happy and healthy life!
