What Causes Frequent Urination At Night?
I have a strong urine stream during the day, but at night I wake every 2-3 hours with only a trickle or incomplete bladder emptying. Annoying. I am 68. I ve been told by my Dr I have benign enlarged prostate. Puzzled why it s fine during the day but weak stream during sleep hours. Is prostate function linked to sleep cycle? Or does prostate not like being in prolonged reclined position? I notice same constrained flow during daytime when I have to sit long hours on an airplane. Perhaps prostate doesn t like prolonged confinement? Overheating? Thanks
