Prune extract for enlarged prostate symptoms
This trial tests a natural supplement made from a type of plum (Prunus domestica extract, called Prosman) to see if it improves urinary symptoms, supports prostate function, and boosts quality of life in men with mild-to-moderate enlarged prostate symptoms. If you qualify, you may receive the supplement or a placebo (a pill with no active ingredient) for a period, and your symptoms and testosterone levels will be monitored.
