The number of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) subjects has been increasing worldwide, and many studies have
been conducted to determine the treatment that can delay drug therapy or surgery. Subsequently, most of these studies involved
physical activity (PA) and associated factors. Therefore, we aimed to determine factors associated with BPH prevalence based on
a review of past and present studies and to investigate the effect of a healthy lifestyle as a protective factor of BPH occurrence.
