Secondary Prevention
- For mild symptoms:
- Urinate when you first get the urge. Also, go to the bathroom when you have the chance, even if you don't feel a need to urinate.
- Avoid alcohol and caffeine, especially after dinner.
- Don't drink a lot of fluid all at once. Spread out fluids throughout the day. Avoid drinking fluids within 2 hours of bedtime.
- Try NOT to take over-the-counter cold and sinus medications that contain decongestants or antihistamines. These medications can increase BPH symptoms.
- Keep warm and exercise regularly. Cold weather and lack of physical activity may worsen symptoms.
- Learn and perform Kegel exercises (pelvic strengthening exercises).
- Reduce stress. Nervousness and tension can lead to more frequent urination.
