This study was conducted to measure the improvement of prostate volume after treatment with Tamsulosin and Dutasteride as a combination drug in BPH patient at RSUD Kota Mataram from February 2020 to April 2020. The data were obtained by documenting the medical records of 20 new BPH patients ultrasound before and after 2 months therapy.
