For many men, lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) linked to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) gradually become a major quality-of-life concern. Frequent nighttime urination, hesitancy, urgency, and incomplete emptying are more than just inconveniences—they affect sleep, daily energy, and general wellbeing.

When symptoms become bothersome, one of two well-known approaches are often applied: alpha-blockers, a class of medications, and the extract of Serenoa repens, a specific plant extract used for prostate wellbeing. A recent French real-world study —the PERSAT sub-analysis— offers an unusually clear comparison of how men respond to each over a period of six months.
