Brief Answer:
benign enlargement of the prostate

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Frequent peeing is not a symptom of prostate cancer

If the pee is reddish in color then it may be a sign of prostate cancer as it may contain blood

Frequent peeing may be a sign of benign enlargement of the prostate

I would advise you to do an ultrasonography of lower abdomen to see the condition of your prostate
