TherMatrx® may be the solution for thousands of men like Art. Could it be the answer for you?

Art first noticed the problem soon after his retirement. He was waking more frequently during the night, and even during the day he experienced an increased urge to urinate – and often had difficulty postponing it.

His physician said that Art’s symptoms were caused by an enlarged prostate, a common problem for men in their 60s. They discussed the options and decided that oral medications would be a first step.

Art knew that while drugs work for some men, many don’t find the relief they’re looking for, and many have to increase their dosage or even discontinue the therapy altogether. So he knew he would have to pay close attention to how well the drugs were working for him. When they didn’t quite do the trick, he was back looking for more answers.


Patient Results

Most patients experience significant enlarged prostate symptom relief after treatment with TherMatrx®. Here are some findings from clinical studies.

  • Significant Improvement in Symptoms—The American Urological Association (AUA) BPH Symptom Score questionnaire helps determine the severity of a patient's enlarged prostate symptoms by assigning them a number. The AUA Symptom Score was used in clinical studies to measure how much symptoms were improved after treatment with TherMatrx.
    • The Results: AUA Symptom Scores improved by 47 percent after treatment with TherMatrx after 12 months.
  • Improved Quality of Life—Perhaps the most important measurement of how well a treatment works is its effect on quality of life. When an enlarged prostate starts to affect your quality of life, you should talk to a doctor about your treatment options.
    • The Results: After treatment with TherMatrx, patients in clinical studies reported a 49 percent increase in their quality of life 13 months after treatment.
  • No sexual side effects reported in clinical studies
  • The Results: In the clinical study, no men treated with TherMatrx had a decrease in sexual function as a result of treatment.
