I recently had my prostate examined, and the doctor told me that it was enlarged, but at this point not enough to need to do something about it (They told me that it was approximately double the normal size!)

I got the message that it was not a question about having to do something about it, but more of when. When I asked, when they thought this would be the right time, I was told, that when it becomes a problem

My question is, when do you consider a prostate enlargement, a problem. Sure peeing more often, and it taking longer time, is an inconvenience but not a problem as such.

What are your suggestions?

    oh yeah - the sitting is a good tip! for me it was mainly because the lack of pressure would result in an “unreliable trajectory” so its just to be safe. But it is a better way to empty ones bladder for sure! Also a light tug at the balls to pull them forward, in order to get those last few drops that kind of sneak out once you have zipped your trousers…

    Good info!
