Slow urination: An enlarged prostate is possible, as is a prostate infection. Please see your doctor for diagnosis. You may be referred to a urologist. Ask about natural products to help prostate as an alternative to medication, although conventional medicine is not always knowledgeable about these things. Peace and good health.
