What Causes Frequent Urination At Night?
I have had frequent urination and at night every 90 mins to 2 hours. Sometimes the stream is good but most times it is weak. I was under a doctors cars for this for 2 years and tried various melds,but nothing has helped. He inspected my prostrate going via the penis and that did not show swelling. I also have my pas tested a number of times and it is very good. I take two Jed s for high BP. When I take Advil at night it usually increases my time between urinating to 3 to 5 hours. What else could be wrong?

Hello,
Common cause of frequent urination in elderly males is enlarged prostate. However, in your case the prostate is not enlarged so drugs for hypertension can be the cause of frequent urination. Some drugs against hypertension can cause frequent urination.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
