Injecting alcohol into prostate could shrink it

Injecting alcohol directly into the prostate gland could shrink it and avoid the need for men to get up in the night to urinate, a study has claimed.

Ethanol jabs through the rectum shrink the prostate by more than a third and relieve pressure on the bladder and penis.

Doctors said the development is 'excellent news' and believe it could be as effective as treatments already used by the NHS.

Millions of men in the UK and the US have enlarged prostates and have trouble urinating as a result.

How can this be true when drug companies sell our doctors and us stuff with exotic names that have a 20% or less success rate? Maybe it's to sell us more Depends.
