Background: A prevalent issue affecting older men is Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. Even though prostatectomy is the most effective course of action, conservative management is always favoured. Ayurvedic medicines can help such folks live better lives and relieve their symptoms. In Ayurvedic Samhitas, urinary disorders are mentioned as Mutraghata (Suppression or obstruction of urinary flow). The words Mutra (which refers to urine) and Aghata (which denotes obstruction of the urinary passage) are combined to form the term Mutraghata. Vatashthila is one of the types of Mutraghata. The symptoms of BPH are similar to those of Vatashthila caused by an imbalance of Vata Dosha. In this case study, we demonstrate how Ayurvedic medicines reduced the size of the prostate and the International Prostatic Symptoms Score. Main Clinical Findings: A 65-year-old patient reached the hospital with a complaint of intermittent pain in the suprapubic region and frequent micturition. He disclosed further lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), including urgency, dysuria, and nocturia (more than four urinations in the night). Conclusion: BPH is an age-linked disease. Even though surgery is the most effective form of treatment, using Ayurvedic medicines may help to lessen the symptoms and improve overall quality of life. After taking Ayurvedic treatment, the patient was relieved from symptoms, and the prostate became normal in size.
