Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Must be able to swallow tablets
  • Adult males undergoing elective AEEP for symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with prostate volume ≥40 ml , Moderate to severe LUTS defined by International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) ≥19 at baseline.
  • Patient is Willing to participate and able to provide written informed consent

Exclusion criteria

Treatment and study plan

Tadalafil 5mg (Male)

Drug

Tadalafil 5 mg is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor taken orally, commonly prescribed as a once-daily low dose therapy. It works by relaxing smooth muscle and improving blood flow in specific tissues.

Omiga 3

Drug

Giving omiga 3 for patients who are not in tadalafil group

Primary outcomes

  1. Proportion of patients achieving stress urine incontinence at 12 weeks post op, assessed by IPSS score

    Time frame: 12 weeks

    More Precise Academic Wording:

    • Proportion of patients: The percentage (%) of the total study population.
    • Stress urinary incontinence (SUI): Involuntary leakage of urine during activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure (e.g., coughing, sneezing, lifting).
    • 12 weeks post-operative: Three months after surgery.
    • Assessed by IPSS score: Evaluation based on patient responses to the International Prostate Symptom Score questionnaire.

    Important Methodological Note:

    The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is primarily designed to assess lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) such as:

    • Frequency
    • Urgency
    • Weak stream
    • Nocturia

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline in IPSS storage subdomain score at 4 weeks , 8weeks , and 12 weeks. Time to micturate freely IPSS total .

    Time frame: 12 weeks
