LUTS: Common symptoms of BPH or bothersome urinary symptoms caused by enlarged prostate include weak stream, difficulty starting stream, hesitency, urinary frequency/urgency, nocturia. I would see your medical doctor/urologist. He/she will likely perform an examination of your prostate and may consider starting medication to treat your bothersome urinary symptoms.

BPH /high PSA: Increase in frequency to urinate small amounts of urine. Urine flow is smaller and cannot send it far as before ( males need to sit instead of stand to urinate) patient has to force or push the urine out with more force. Pt. Wakes up more than once at night to urinate. There could be a distended bladder palpable in the low abdomen supra pubic area where pt may have pain. Urine infections in males.
