Dear Patient, the enlarged prostate can cause urin infections due to the blockage of the urin, since the urethra goes through the prostate. Depending on how large your prostate is you need to talk to your urologist about the possibilities of perscription medication for it or if that isn't successfull there is the option of minimal invasive surgery to make the prostate smaller. I wish you all the best
