LUTS (Lower Tract Symptoms) improvement effect evaluated in patients with BPH symptoms after Tamsulosin treatment6 months

To measure the level of LUTS (Lower Tract Symptoms), the IPSS was calculated.

: The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is used to assess the severity of LUTS (Lower Tract Symptoms) and to monitor disease progression.

The IPSS is calculated from 7 questions regarding incomplete emptying, frequency, intermittency, urgency, weak stream, and straining \[rated as 0 (not at all) to 5 (almost always)\], as well as how many times on average a participant has to get up to urinate at night (0=none to 5=5 times or more).

The total score is classified as follows: 0 to 7 = mildly symptomatic; 8 to 19 = moderately symptomatic; and 20 to 35 = severely symptomatic.
