Pyginal Capsule 10's belongs to a group of medicines called BPH agents used to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hypertrophy in men with an enlarged prostate and to improve sexual function. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland due to the multiplication of the cells. Benign prostatic hypertrophy/hyperplasia mostly occurs in older men.
