Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is designed to test the safety and effectiveness of a plant-based supplement called Prosman™ (made from Prunus domestica extract) for men with symptoms of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), a common non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that causes urinary problems in older men.

Key Points:

Purpose: The main goal is to see if Prosman™ can improve prostate health, hormone levels, and quality of life in men aged 40 to 60 who have BPH symptoms.

How the Study Works:

38 men will be randomly assigned to take either Prosman™ or a placebo (a dummy pill) every day for 8 weeks.

The study is randomized and controlled, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know who is getting Prosman™ or the placebo.

Measurements:

Prostate health will be measured using a symptom score.

Blood tests will check hormone levels and other health markers.

Quality of life will also be tracked.

Safety: The study will monitor for any side effects or health problems during the trial.

Why It Matters: Current medications for BPH can have unwanted side effects, so there is interest in plant-based alternatives like Prosman™, which may offer benefits with fewer risks.

The study follows strict ethical guidelines to protect participants' privacy and safety. Data will be kept confidential, and participants can leave the study at any time.

* An IPSS score of 8-19 (inclusive).
* Symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) for at least 6 months prior to screening (e.g. Incomplete emptying: the feeling the bladder is full, even after passing urine; Frequency: the need to pass urine often, about every one to two hours; Intermittency: the need to stop and start several times when passing urine; Urgency: feeling the urgent need to pass urine; Weak stream: a weak urine flow; Straining: trouble starting to pass urine or the need to push or strain to pass urine; Nocturia: the need to wake up at night more than two times to pass urine.
* Normotensive (seated, resting systolic blood pressure \<140 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure \< 90 mm Hg. If the first measurement is slightly elevated above these limits, the subject will be given a brief (5 minute) rest period, and two more measurements will be taken. The average of all three measurements will be used to determine eligibility.
* The subject is willing and able to comply with the study protocol.

Exclusion Criteria
