What Are The Symptoms Of Prostate Problems?
I have had difficulty urinating for the past few months, mainly before i go to bed. There is no pain, just the feeling like im not finished. Now recently, when trying to get intimate with my girlfriend, I could not get an erection. I've looked online and found these are both symptoms for Prostate problems.
