Brief Answer:
Increase water intake

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Your doctor has covered everything and advised medications for all expected concerns. There is nothing much to add.

Still, I would like to suggest few things

-- Drink ample amount of water to prevent infection as they are common in post op patients.
-- Drink a glass cranberry juice every day if sugars are under control. This prevents infections
-- Increase foods like onion, cabbage, broccoli and amaranthus.

-- Do get your testosterone levels estimated. if low you can take testosterone supplement injections. This will prevent future enlargement of the gland.

Hope, I answered your query.

Please do ask if any doubts.
