If you find that you are urinating more than 2 times at nighttime and your urine stream is not as strong, go see a urologist and get your prostate checked. Oftentimes, is it enlarged and it's affecting your urine stream? You're going to be taking medication. But I will tell you this, diet, Mediterranean diet. If you follow Mediterranean diet, it will also help with decreasing the size of the bladder because it's anti-inflammatory. And also, if you moderate your alcohol content, keep your alcohol consumption to about 14 drinks or less for the week, because alcohol is inflammation to the prostate. And so those two main things can help with the size of the prostate.
