Urinary symptoms that he is referring to are: 1. Urinary frequency- urinating very often (less than 2 hours) 2. Urgency- trouble holding/delaying urination. 3. Nocturia- urinating more than 2 x at night. 4. Weak stream 5. Intermittency- discontinues urine stream. 6. Straining- pushing out the urine with abdominal muscles. 7. Feeling of residual urine.
We also ask a quality of life issue in terms of urination like How happy are you with your urination? You may also download an IPSS (scoring system) and you may answer it to check if you have prostate symptoms.
You are still very young to have prostate symptoms and it usually start at a more advance age like 50-60 onwards.
