Symptoms Of Prostate Enlargement

Prostate Enlargement

An enlarged prostate means the gland has grown bigger. Prostate enlargement happens to almost all men as they get older. As the gland grows, it can press on the urethra and cause urination and bladder problems.

Symptoms of Enlarged Prostate:

  • A weak or slow urinary stream

  • A feeling of incomplete bladder emptying

  • Difficulty starting urination

  • Frequent urination

  • Urgency to urinate

  • Getting up frequently at night to urinate

  • A urinary stream that starts and stops

A Weak or Slow Urinary Stream

A Feeling of Incomplete Bladder Emptying

Difficulty Starting Urination

Frequent Urination

In most people the bladder is able to store urine until it is convenient to go to the toilet, typically four to eight times a day. Needing to go more than eight times a day or waking up in the night to go to the bathroom could mean you're drinking too much. Or it could signal a health problem.
