What Causes Frequent Urination With PSA Level Of 0.2?

I have have a PSA of 0.2 and take Flomax every night, yet I get up to urinate every 90 minutes between 11:00 PM and 5:00 AM. There was no sign of enlarged prostate at my last physical 8 months ago. I drink a lot of liquid during the day but urinate no more than 2 or 3 times. What could be the cause/

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

I understand your concern.

Frequent urination every night could be due to:
- drinking water in the afternoon. Avoid drinking fluids later than 6 pm to avoid bath visits at night.
- urinary tract infection (UTI). You mention only PSA (0.2) which is perfectly normal. However, no urine analysis report is in yet. Urine infection is also causing frequent urination. Treating it adequately will help ease this symptom too.
- Flomax is an alpha blocker that is helping with urine passage in the urinary tract. That is not enough in treating frequent urination especially if UTI is present.

Wish fast recovery.
