The prostate is a walnut sized that forms the part of the male reproductive system. In case of prostate enlargement it squeezes the urethra and interferes with the normal flow of urine and causes uncomfortable symptoms. All men do not suffer from the symptoms. Size of the gland has no correlation with the symptoms. A small gland can produce a lot of symptoms and a person with a large gland can have no symptoms. However, the common symptoms includes frequent urination more than seven times a day or more than once at night, poor or interrupted urinary flow, actual delay at the start of urination and need to strain to pass the urine, feeling of urgency to urinate, feeling of incomplete urination, urinary tract infections or sometimes bleeding. If someone takes more than one minute to start the urine and more than two minutes to complete the act of urination this condition requires the consultation with your family physician
