Prices in the “Ukraine” column come from MediUkraine’s partner clinics. The Czech Republic and Turkey columns show the lower bounds of prices published by clinics there (for Turkey, also the Turkish Dental Association’s recommended 2026 tariff), collected in August 2026 and converted to US dollars at the rate on the day of collection. A dash means we could not find a comparable published price. In any country, the final cost is set by the clinic after an examination.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate that disrupts urination and significantly lowers quality of life. Modern treatment in Ukraine takes an individual approach, based on the stage of the condition, other health problems and your age.
In the early stages conservative methods are used: medication with alpha-blockers and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, which reduce symptoms and slow the progression of the condition. This approach can postpone surgery or avoid it altogether.
When conservative treatment is not effective enough, minimally invasive and surgical techniques are offered: transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), laser procedures, radiofrequency ablation and other modern procedures. They are less traumatic and have a shorter rehabilitation period than traditional open operations.
MediUkraine will arrange diagnosis and treatment of prostatic hyperplasia at the urology service of the partner clinic in Uzhhorod and support you through every stage of treatment.
Travel. Ukrainian airspace is closed, so there are no commercial flights. Uzhhorod lies right on the border with Slovakia and close to Hungary, so patients usually arrive overland from one of these two countries, by car, bus or train.
Visas. Citizens of the EU, the United Kingdom and the United States do not need a visa for short stays in Ukraine. Rules depend on your citizenship, so check your own before booking.
Safety, plainly. Ukraine is at war. Air raid alerts occur across the country, including in Uzhhorod, and an appointment can be interrupted by one. Several governments advise against travel to Ukraine, and while that advice stands, ordinary travel and medical insurance is often void — confirm your cover with your insurer before you commit to anything.
Language. MediUkraine handles correspondence, scheduling, the written treatment plan and the quote in English. The clinic's team communicates with international patients in English.
Payment. You pay the clinic directly. Our coordination service is free of charge for you.

Treatment of prostatic hyperplasia is chosen according to the stage of the condition, the severity of symptoms and your general health. In the early stages conservative treatment with alpha-blockers and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors is used. These medicines reduce pressure on the urinary tract and slow the progression of the condition. Medication follows a clear schedule, with regular checks of its effect using urodynamic tests.
If the conservative approach is not effective enough, minimally invasive procedures are recommended: transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), laser vaporisation and thermal methods. These procedures are performed under endoscopic guidance, preserve the function of the organ and shorten rehabilitation compared with open surgery.
In complex cases open prostatectomy is used, in which the enlarged tissue of the prostate is removed. The urologist chooses the method after a thorough assessment. MediUkraine specialists will arrange treatment at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, which has the necessary equipment and experienced staff.
The rehabilitation period after treatment of prostatic hyperplasia depends on the method used. With medication, you continue your normal routine without restrictions. After a minimally invasive procedure (laser vaporisation, transurethral resection), recovery takes 2–4 weeks, with discomfort on passing urine gradually easing and urination returning to normal.
In the first days after surgery, avoid heavy physical exertion, sitting for long periods and driving. Follow the drinking regime you have been given: drinking enough fluids helps flush the urinary tract. It is important to see the urologist regularly so they can check healing and assess the effect of treatment.
The MediUkraine team supports you at every stage, including coordinating services at the partner clinic, providing rehabilitation advice and arranging follow-up check-ups. We help you return to an active life with the lowest possible risk of complications.
Prostatic hyperplasia (prostate adenoma) is a benign overgrowth of prostate tissue that makes passing urine difficult. Treatment is chosen according to the stage of the condition, the severity of symptoms and the results of diagnostic tests. MediUkraine puts you in touch with specialists at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod who take a comprehensive approach to managing this condition.
In the early stages conservative treatment is used: alpha-blockers relieve symptoms, and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors reduce the size of the gland. At the same time, urodynamic tests, ultrasound and uroflowmetry are carried out to assess how the urinary system is working. This approach can postpone surgery for several years.
MediUkraine helps you choose the right treatment plan, arranges consultations with urologists and ensures proper follow-up during rehabilitation.
Treatment of prostatic hyperplasia in Ukraine offers good value for the quality of medical care. Diagnostic procedures, including prostate ultrasound, uroflowmetry and the necessary laboratory tests, cost 40–60% less than at European clinics. At the same time, the equipment at Ukrainian medical centres meets international standards.
Surgical treatment, including transurethral resection and laser vaporisation of the prostate, costs 2–3 times less at Ukrainian clinics than in the USA or Western Europe, without lowering the quality of surgery. Operating theatres have modern endoscopic equipment, and the hospital stay is 1–2 days, which reduces the overall cost of treatment.
MediUkraine helps you agree a treatment plan with the partner clinic in Uzhhorod and arranges support during outpatient follow-up. The clinic's team communicates with international patients in English. This lets international patients receive quality medical care at an affordable price in comfortable conditions.
Treatment of prostatic hyperplasia at Ukrainian clinics follows international protocols and modern standards of diagnosis and therapy. MediUkraine's partner clinic in Uzhhorod has a urology department with the necessary diagnostic equipment: transrectal ultrasound, urodynamic testing and cystoscopy. This allows an accurate diagnosis and an individual choice of treatment for each patient.
Patient safety rests on treatment by doctors certified in their specialty. Treatment includes both medication with alpha-blockers and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors and minimally invasive procedures: transurethral resection of the prostate, laser vaporisation and photoselective vaporisation. Every procedure is accompanied by appropriate anaesthesia and monitoring of vital signs.
MediUkraine helps you plan treatment according to your medical needs, the specialists' experience and the clinic's facilities. The platform provides clear information about the clinic and its prices and the option of a consultation before you come.
📍 Uzhhorod, Ukraine
A multidisciplinary hospital in Uzhhorod, part of a network of medical facilities in western Ukraine: an outpatient clinic, a surgical centre covering 15 specialties and a 30-bed inpatient unit. Its 52 doctors include professors and PhDs; many operations are done as day surgery, with discharge after 1–2 days.
Treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia in Ukraine uses modern methods to relieve the symptoms of an enlarged prostate: a weak urine stream, frequent night-time urges, urinary retention and a feeling of incomplete emptying. Depending on the stage and your symptoms, medication, laser techniques, transurethral procedures or a combination are used. The aim of treatment is to restore normal urine flow, prevent complications and improve quality of life.
The cost depends on the method:
medication is the most affordable;
minimally invasive techniques (laser vaporisation, HoLEP) are in the mid-price range;
transurethral operations cost more but are highly effective.
Prices in Ukraine are significantly lower than in the EU or Turkey, which makes treatment cost-effective.
Most patients from Europe, the UK or Turkey do not need a visa. Patients from other countries should check the current entry rules before travelling.
Treatment is considered for men with symptoms such as frequent night-time urges, difficulty starting to pass urine, a weak stream, a feeling of incomplete emptying or urinary retention.
After diagnostic tests (ultrasound, PSA, urodynamics), the urologist decides on the most suitable treatment.
Treatments in line with international standards are available in Ukraine:
medication;
GreenLight laser vaporisation;
HoLEP (holmium laser enucleation of the prostate);
TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate);
TUIP (transurethral incision of the prostate);
combined methods.
This makes effective treatment possible even when the prostate is very large.
Most patients feel better within 1–3 days.
Full recovery depends on the method and usually takes from 7 days to 3 weeks. Laser methods have the shortest rehabilitation period.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia does not in itself cause erectile problems. The symptoms can cause psychological discomfort; treatment rarely worsens potency, and many patients report a better sex life once normal urination is restored.
After surgical treatment (TURP, HoLEP and similar), retrograde ejaculation is common and can affect fertility, so if you are planning to have children, discuss this risk with the urologist before choosing a method.
