Is peeing more frequently always a sign of prostate cancer?
While everything from increased fluid intake to bladder irritation can trigger more frequent trips to the toilet, it could indicate cancer in the prostate.
Professor Hashim Ahmed said: “You’ll know what’s normal to you but, if you start needing to urinate more often during the day, get a sudden urge to go or needing to get up during the night it can be a sign that your prostate has enlarged.”
Sudden changes to your toilet habits are a key sign of growing cancer pressing on, or near the urethra.
In most cases, you could just be dealing with a urinary tract infection (UTI), but it is best to seek professional advice if you are concerned.
