In this brief segment, Dr. Anne Truong MD explains four common symptoms of an enlarged prostate. She notes that a younger man may experience a weaker urinary stream, requiring more time to finish urinating. Because the prostate can compress the urethra, the bladder often does not empty completely, leading to the need for "double voiding"—urinating a second time shortly after the first. She also mentions involuntary leakage when not actively urinating, and frequent nighttime bathroom trips (nocturia) that disrupt sleep. These signs together help viewers recognize possible prostate enlargement and consider medical evaluation.

The stream is not as long when you're younger, and that's why it takes you longer to urinate. Also, sometimes you have to do double void because when you go urinate, you don't empty everything in the bladder because the prostate's clamping down on that. Other symptoms is that you tend to leak when you're not urinating. And other symptoms is also nighttime. You, at nighttime, you go like 2, 3 times, 4 times a night. To go to the bathroom. So when you have enlarged prostate, it affect your sleep. You have to get up and go to the bathroom.
