Which of the following is a characteristic of benign prostatic hyperplasia

Which of the following is a characteristic of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)?

A. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) >10 ng/mL

B. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS)

C. Metastatic disease

D. Prostate pain

Answer: B

Explanation: BPH causes benign prostate enlargement, leading to LUTS (frequency, urgency, weak stream, nocturia); elevated PSA suggests cancer, not BPH.
