Despite advancements in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the mechanisms underlying BPH development and progression remain elusive and lacks a one-size-fits-all therapeutic solution. Prostatic inflammation contributes to BPH and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), but the initial trigger remains unknown. Current research suggests dysbiosis of the urinary microbiome as a potential culprit. This systematic review explores the emerging field of the male urinary and prostatic microbiome and its relationship with BPH/LUTS. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were followed. A systematic search in the Pubmed and Scopus databases was performed using specific terms. Inclusion criteria considered male non-neurogenic patients with LUTS due to BPH with analyses of urinary microbiome, concerning evaluation of English-language publications with relevance. Among seven articles involving 542 patients, there was an association between male LUTS/BPH and the urinary microbiome. Findings indicate a correlation between urinary microbiome dysbiosis and LUTS severity, with specific bacterial genera such as Streptococcus and Haemophilus linked to higher International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) scores and PSA levels. The fecal microbiome may be associated with LUTS, although contradictory findings are reported. The review also highlights methodological inconsistencies, small sample sizes, few negative controls and a lack of comprehensive clinical data as major limitations. While there is an undeniable correlation between the microbiome and LUTS/BPH, future research should aim to standardize sampling techniques and expand the score to include functional microbiome characterization, potentially leading to novel, microbiome-targeted therapeutic strategies for BPH.
