Frequent Urination in Men: Causes & When to Seek Care
Frequent urination can occur with BPH but has other causes, so persistent symptoms deserve medical evaluation.
What this symptom can mean
This symptom can occur with BPH, but it is not specific to BPH. NIDDK notes that urinary symptoms may also be related to bladder problems, urinary tract infections, prostatitis or prostate cancer.
What to do next
Persistent, worsening or bothersome symptoms should be discussed with a health professional. Inability to urinate, blood in the urine, fever/chills with painful urgent urination, or significant lower abdominal/urinary pain require prompt medical attention.
Where supplements fit
A supplement should not be used to self-diagnose the cause of a urinary symptom. If you later choose to research supplements, compare evidence and safety separately from the medical evaluation.
