5 Powerful TCM Herbs For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

May 15, 2026

 

A Natural Solution for Frequent Night Urination & Urinary Trouble

Many middle-aged and elderly men suffer from urinary discomforts: frequent urination, excessive nighttime bathroom trips, weak urine stream, dribbling, or a feeling of incomplete emptying. In Western medicine, this is benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it is called Long Bi (Urinary Retention).

BPH is often triggered by damp-heat stagnation or kidney yang deficiency-not just simple infection. Professor Lu Chonghan, a renowned inheritor of the Huoshen School of TCM, has achieved remarkable results using just 5 herbs to relieve even severe BPH.

Why Common TCM Treatments Often Fail

Clinically, many practitioners label BPH simply as "damp-heat in the bladder" and use formulas like Ba Zheng San or Dao Chi San to clear heat and promote diuresis.But results are often temporary and unsatisfactory.

This proves BPH is not just damp-heat. It is rooted in a deeper issue: yang qi decline with aging.

As recorded in Shang Han Heng Lun:

"Shao yin abdominal pain and urinary difficulty are caused by cold binding in the lower jiao, failing to transform yin fluid."

The core principle: Support yang and dispel cold - not just drain water.

The Root Cause of BPH (TCM Perspective)

BPH mainly affects men 50+ because:

With age, kidney yang declines

Qi transformation weakens

Water-dampness accumulates and stagnates

Dampness blocks the lower jiao and prostate

Result: swollen prostate, blocked urethra, difficult urination → Long Bi

The correct strategy is not over-draining water, but warming yang to activate water metabolism.

5 Herbs That Relieve Severe BPH (The Classic Formula)

Professor Lu used a modified Zhen Wu Tang with only 5 core herbs to resolve a 6-year severe BPH case where Western medicine and other herbs failed.

The 5-Herb Prescription

Processed Aconite (Zhi Fu Pian) 75g - strongly warms kidney yang

Raw Atractylodes (Sheng Bai Zhu) 15g - strengthens spleen, dries dampness

Poria (Fu Ling) 25g - drains dampness, calms water

Epimedium (Yin Yang Huo / Horny Goat Weed) 20g - tonifies kidney yang, improves urinary power

Fresh Ginger (Sheng Jiang) 60g - warms the middle, assists yang to dispel cold

Clinical Result (A Real Case)

A 58-year-old Japanese official with 6-year BPH:

Night urination: 15–16 times/night

Urine thin, weak, 3–5 minutes per void

Tired, bloated lower abdomen

Western doctors recommended surgery (feared sexual side effects)

Previous long-term herbs: hoelen, alisma, plantain seed - no lasting improvement

After taking the 5-herb formula:

1st dose: urine volume ↑, frequency ↓, urination smoother

3 doses: urination clear & easy

Night urination ↓ to 2 times/night

Follow-up: added Cinnamon Twig (Gui Zhi) for stronger flow

Final: added Amomum (Sha Ren) to consolidate kidney qi

Total <30 doses: fully recovered

Night urination ↓ to once nightly; no recurrence for 1 full year

This formula works because it targets the root: kidney yang deficiency + water stagnation - not just symptoms.
