After participating in this CME activity, participants will be able to:

1. Utilize the AUA Clinical Guideline on the Management of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Attributed to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia in practice.

2. Determine the appropriate role and clinical expectation for current technologies, including pivotal studies, based on evidence.

3. Interpret the current clinical results and compare the patient experiences of these treatments in relation to more established and even abandoned treatments for patient groups with similar characteristics.

4. Differentiate between each of the new technologies for treating BPH/LUTS based on both their mode-of-action and the quality of their supporting evidence.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
