Popis: The increasing incidence of mortality due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in ageing men globally is of serious concern and needed collective efforts to arrest it. The benign prostatic hyperplasia result from excessive growth of the prostate gland due to proliferating cells which impairs urethral functions by compressing it. This present study evaluated the effect of methanol extract of Allium sativa (MEAS) on lipid profile, renal and hepatic function biomarkers of testosterone induced benign prostate hyperplasia in male rats. The study was done using 25 adult male albino rats, divided into 5 groups, which comprises of normal control, negative control, positive control, and BPH induced rats treated with 200 and 400 mg/kg /day of MEAS respectively. Hepatic and renal biomarkers (ALT, AST, ALP, Urea, Creatinine) and lipid profile (HDL, LDL, TAG, CHOL were evaluated. The BPH induction caused significant (p0.05) reduction in the biochemical biomarkers with significant (p
