The Real Cause of Prostate Enlargement (Doctor Reveals)

Beyond Testosterone: The Real Reasons Your Prostate is Growing

If you are over 50, there is a 50% chance you are already dealing with the frustrating symptoms of an enlarged prostate. Whether it’s waking up multiple times at night or a weakening urinary stream, BPH can significantly impact your quality of life.

But what is actually causing the growth? In this video, Dr. Stengler moves beyond the surface to explain the complex hormonal shift that happens as men age.

What you’ll learn in this deep dive:

  • The DHT Trap: Why the enzyme 5-alpha reductase is the real culprit, not just testosterone.
  • The Estrogen Factor: How aging and body fat can lead to "estrogen dominance" in men, fueling prostate inflammation.
  • Metabolic Red Flags: The link between insulin resistance, diet, and prostate size.
  • The "Navy Seals" of Nutrition: Which deficiencies (like Vitamin D and Omega-3s) might be putting you at risk.
