Objective: To identify factors associated with quality of life and severity of symptoms in patients with prostatic hyperplasia undergoing medical treatment. Material and methods: An observational, analytical - cross-sectional study was carried out in patients with prostatic hyperplasia receiving medical treatment at a hospital in Piura, between October and November 2022. The SF-36 survey was used to assess the quality of life, the IPSS questionnaire to assess the severity of the symptoms and a self-prepared data collection form that included potentially associated factors. Patients were recruited in an outpatient urology clinic and the data obtained were recorded in an Excel database, statistical analysis was performed in STATA v 17.0 and considered the use of simple and multiple linear regression under an F value less than 0.20. Results: Of 166 patients with prostatic hyperplasia surveyed, multiple linear regression found an association between the severity of symptoms and alcohol consumption (RP 0.12); while the physical quality of life variable was found to be associated with educational level (RP 0.12), marital status (RP 0.03), physical activity (RP 0.13) and treatment (0.06); and in the quality of mental life, he found an association with educational level (RP 0.08) and alcohol (RP 0.05). Conclusion: Age, level of education, marital status, physical activity, alcohol consumption, and type of treatment showed a significant association with quality of life and severity of symptoms.
