The symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) can vary in severity but commonly include frequent urination, particularly at night (nocturia), difficulty starting urination, weak urine stream, the sensation of incomplete bladder emptying, urinary urgency, and urinary retention (inability to empty the bladder completely). Some men may also experience urinary tract infections or bladder stones as a result of BPH. These symptoms can significantly impact quality of life and should be discussed with a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and management.
