    BPH refers to a prostate that has grown larger than normal. It can cause problems with urination.

    Prostatitus is an infection of the prostate.

    They are not related. You can have prostatitus with a small prostate, and you can have a large prostate that is not infected.

    Treatmenst for each condition are very different.
