First, you need to confirm what is the size of enlargement is it benign or malignant and what is the severity of obstruction etcetera.
You need an ultrasound of prostate, per rectal examination for prostate and serum prostate-specific antigen level etcetera. Please consult your urologist so that he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
