Re: can't pee when sitting - indicates what?



on 7/7/2008 5:30 AM phlegmatico said the following:
Had a trans-rectal ultra-sound a few years back. after looking, the
uro said: it's not big enough yet, to do a PVP

need to stand up to start a stream, or sometimes to finish emptying.
This has always been one of my symptoms.

Is this indicative of any particular anatomical situation, vis-a-vis
prostate lobes which wouldn't have been visible in a TRUS?

When you sit, you put more pressure on your lower internal organs, including the prostate. Pressure on the prostate puts more pressure on the urethra.
