Besides Cancer, What Are The Causes of an Enlarged Prostate?

Hello Everyone,





If your doctor has determined that you do NOT have prostate cancer, but have a large prostate, what causes this to happen in the first place? I am aware that frequent urination is a main sign of an enlarged prostate, but what causes the prostate to grow in the first place?
