OAB vs BPH: Frequent urination is part of definition of overactive bladder. However, it can also be caused by an enlarged prostate (benign prostate hypertrophy or bph) or even by diabetes (mellitus vs insipidus), not to mention (non)prescription diuretics. Coffee & alcohol come to mind, too. Early generation allergy meds such as Diphenhydramine can help & hinder while cold meds can worsen. Go see your doc!

Prostate diabetes: For some people, that's normal. But if that number of times is more than it has been, then something is changing. One common reason is the prostate enlarging. Another possibility is diabetes. Check with your doctor.
