Between January 1978 and June 1979, a study of 104 individuals between the ages 17–60 years old were given Bangshil and Fortege for 6 weeks where prostatic congestion resolved for 40.2% of cases, “much improved” for 42.3% of cases, “slight improvement” seen in 5.8% of cases and no improvement for 11.5% of cases.
It affects about 2–6% of men. [3] Together with IC/BPS, it makes up urologic chronic pelvic pain syndrome (UCPPS). [4] The cause is unknown. [1] Diagnosis involves ruling out other potential causes of the symptoms such as bacterial prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, overactive bladder, and cancer. [2] [5]

If fluid intake/outflow is around 1.5 litres per day, this would typically be performed roughly three times per day, i.e. roughly every six to eight hours during the day, more frequently when fluid intake is higher and/or bladder capacity lower. For acute urinary retention, treatment requires urgent placement of a urinary catheter.
If this description was of a 60-year-old woman, the leading diagnosis would be overactive bladder syndrome, given that obstruction is much less common in women. In fact, several large population ...
Prevalence increases with age. The prevalence of nocturia in older men is about 78%. Older men have a higher incidence of LUTS than older women. [25] Around one third of men will develop urinary tract (outflow) symptoms, of which the principal underlying cause is benign prostatic hyperplasia. [26]
