Urinary issues and Prostrate

6 Months after quiting the drug, a rectal Ultra Sound was done and they said the prostrate was normal. My Urinary problems have not really faded off. The forcefull urination is missing so is the power in the ejaculate which is also non-existant.

Is the urination problem due to the prostrate? If I beleive that my prostrate is normal, does that mean that stabilizing the hormones should make it function better?

any thoughts?

i have urinary problems too, i need to pee very frequently, but they appeared about 1 year later i stopped propecia.

Same here.
I quitted fin 7 years ago ā€œCold Turkeyā€, but after one month I begun to see my urinary flow decrease, and I was going to piss more often (about 5 times in a day). The problem getted worse for about 1 year and after that It had been stebilized. I pee every 2-3-4 hours and I have a very low flow (10 ml/s peek), also low ā€œpowerā€ of ejaculation.
One of the many exams Iā€™ve done says that there is an uretral spasm that bloks urine flow.
This uretral spasm, makes urine go inside prostate making prostate inflammation. Inflamed prostate leads low libido, ED, testicular pain (low free T), etcā€¦ Itā€™s a vicious circleā€¦

Maybe thatā€™s a ā€œGABA dependent pelvic floor dysfunctionā€ (connected to prostate): viewtopic.php?f=5&t=335&start=140

Some doctors says that I have a bladder neck sclerosis and that I have to undergo a TUIP (trans uretral incision of the prostate)ā€¦ :frowning:

What exams and treatments did you try?

me? nothing.

has anyone had a cystoscopy or urodynamic study due to urinary problems? I have been through 4 mos of bad symptoms of prostatitis and frequent urination, a feeling of fullness/heaviness in the bladder/prostate. Have had blood, urine and semen tests all come back negative for bacteria and no blood in the urine. My psa just came back at .8 and the TRUS showed my prostate, though not enlarged, had alot of stones. One doctor wants to do a cystoscopy, the other one said to a urodynamic study and the other one said physical therapy for pelvic floor dysfunction, which I have been doing now for about a month.

all started back in November when I had epiditimitis and it turned into this awful constant urination thing. the therapy does help but my symptoms return between therapy sessionsā€¦

anyone have comments please feel free I am looking for answers. I am afraid I will have to do this cystoscopy thing to rule out a stricture or something.

I had a MRI done and they found that my prostate is swollen and has a cyst (1.8 cm of lenth and 0.8 cm to the sides)ā€¦

Braziliandude, do you have urinary issues also? How has the swollen prostate affected you? Do you have prostate pain? Please try to describe for those not familiar with your story.

i have urinary issues and no pain in prostate zone. I think premature ejaculation is related with urinary issues, the days i pee more often are the days when itā€™s more difficult for me to delay ejaculation.

i have little spams once in a whileā€¦and also some kind of nubness down thereā€¦and specially in the anus area. no pain no nothing. i can barelly feel the stool going thru my rectum.

I can barely feel the stools too. Combined with poor urine stream for 5 years and genital disconnect with the mind - I cant figure out anything.

I cant force out urine - what happend tome? I am going to meet a urologist for a prostate exam. I am thinking and hoping he finds a problem with the prostate that caused nerve compression that lead to all my symptons - low ejaculate volume, ED, poor urine stream, poor senstivity of the genitals etc. God please identify my core issues for me!

Does anyone else have this issue? Sometime Iā€™ll need to urinate 3-4 times within an hour, urgently, with a full bladder and normal stream each time. It is a true feeling of urgency/full bladder as opposed to not voiding completely and needing to finish the job again.

I donā€™t have much hesitation before starting, and I donā€™t drip for ages after urinating.

Things that aggravate it are alcohol and caffeine. I canā€™t really drink alcohol anymore because Iā€™ll need to go 4 times within an hour after one or two drinks and itā€™s just too embarrassing/inconvenient. I donā€™t like clubbing or going to bars anymore partially because of this annoying problem.

I also have to say, on some days (particularly if I donā€™t have any caffeine or drink much water) Iā€™m completely normal, so itā€™s just baffling that this comes on randomly for no reason. The one positive thing is that I donā€™t wake during the night to urinate, I may wake up a little earlier than usual but not actually during the night.

Itā€™s also like my bladder capacity has reduced and I NEED to get to a toilet quickly as soon as I get this feeling. My doctor just brushes it off whenever I raise it, Iā€™ve done some urine tests and he says Iā€™m fine (and that it could be ā€˜anxietyā€™, which is rubbish).

I have the same problem do you suffer from extreme thirst also ?

I donā€™t generally suffer from excessive thirst, noā€¦

Does anyone know a good anti inflammatory for pelvic/prostatic area?

go for diabetes test.

Already been checked for it I dont have diabetes.

I think low cortisol may be causing my extreme thirst.

Estrogen dominance also causes more pie. you can google it.

Whats pie ?

Whats pie ?

I mean pee ,I am sorry.

I have the same problem. When this happens the urine is very transparent, like water.
I also feel worse immediately after drinking alcohol.

Maybe is something binded with estrogen like spstriken said. I think we have to push some sort of reset swhitch in our body and atm I think the only way is to do a prolonged water fast to re-establish hormonal values.
