Hello, it is also recommended to have a prostate ultrasound examination at the hospital. Currently, your frequent nighttime urination is a symptom of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). BPH is a common disease in elderly men and is related to the stimulation of the male hormone testosterone. In the early stages, it manifests as frequent urination and increased nighttime urination. In severe cases, it can lead to difficulty urinating.
