Hello,
There is no relation to any such food which causes prostatic hyperplasia. Its a condition seen in the elderly people after 50 years of age. Some develop early whereas many develop after 70 or even 80. The normal prostate is 25-30 gm means 60 gm prostate definitely cause a problem. I usually send PSA value(prostatic serum antigen) so that I can rule out Prostate cancer before starting a treatment. If your symptoms are less then only oral medication may help but if your symptoms are very frequent and troubling then surgery should be undertaken.
Talking about the drug I usually prescribe Finasteride 5 mg and Tamsulosin 0.4 mg to be taken during the night.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harihar Devkota
