Having to push to pee is never normal, Most likely enlarging prostate, Discuss with your Dr.

Yes, it is possible that at age 57 one can have BPH (Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy) an enlargement of the prostate gland, which can partially obstruct the urinary passage and make one have 'to push' to get urine out. The Urologist is who to see for this.
