I'm 70 and I've been up four times a night since I was 65. I've tried three prostate supplements and none of them touched the nighttime trips. The first one was from Holland and Barrett. The second was the one with the American chap on the advert. The third cost me ninety pounds a bottle and I bought six. Five years and the better part of a thousand pounds later, I was getting up exactly as often as before. ​ My GP suggested tamsulosin. I'd already heard from a neighbour in Sutton Coldfield what it had done to him — fainted at the top of the stairs the third morning. I asked for an alternative. She told me to "cut fluids after dinner and see if it helps." I'd been doing that for two years. ​ I gave up driving my granddaughter to her riding lessons because the journey was forty minutes and there were no services. I started planning every shopping trip around the loo at Marks and Spencer because their disabled cubicle was the only one I trusted not to have a queue. None of this seemed to be considered urgent by anyone with a stethoscope. ​ A retired surgical registrar I got chatting to at the golf club in Solihull asked me a question that took me a fortnight to stop thinking about. Has anyone explained to me that the bladder problem in men my age isn't one problem? It's two going wrong at the same time, and one of them isn't the prostate at all. ​ He said the prostate is real — fine. But the bladder muscle itself becomes oversensitive with age and sends false alarm signals to the brain when the bladder is barely a third full. A 2022 study followed 175 men who'd had aggressive prostate surgery to address that first pathway. Over half were still up at night afterwards. The surgery hadn't settled it. ​ Then he said there's a third thing going on that he wasn't going to walk through in the bar — a kidney hormone that quietly stops doing its bedtime job after 60. Documented in a leading geriatric journal in 1997. Cutting water doesn't address it because the upstream signal is what's broken, not the input. ​ He mentioned a retired urologist who'd written about all three of these together. I went home and read it that evening. ​ I'm not going to try to repeat the whole article here because he explains it properly and I'd make a mess of it. What I will say is that I'm now up once a night, around half past five, and I went to my granddaughter's birthday party in Coventry last weekend without mapping the journey by service stations. ​ If you've tried two or three prostate tablets and the nighttime trips haven't moved — read what Dr. Marcus Bellini wrote about the Three-Pathway Nocturia Lock. He walks through it the way I wish my own GP had bothered to. It's the first explanation that made the last five years make any sense. ​ https://www.zynvista.com/UK/nocturia

Three Prostate Tablets In, Still Up Four Times A Night. Here's Why.

If even the operation doesn't stop the nighttime trips, a consultant argues we've been treating the wrong cause all along.
