Symptom #2: Urinating Frequently
Human bladders generally hold around 400–600 mL of urine. When it is close to capacity then it will need to be emptied, and this is achieved through urination. This means that most people are likely to need to urinate several times every day, although the figure can vary according to factors such as the volume of liquids you have consumed.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia, however, expands and pushes into the bladder. This has the effect of decreasing the bladder’s capacity. As such, people with the condition are likely to be making more trips to the bathroom.
