A few days ago, I had been working outside all day, digging and moving
stuff around, and wound up with a sore back. That night, feeling that
the sore back would continue into the next day, I took two aspirins
before going to bed. I woke up the next morning with my sore back
feeling much better. I then realized that I didn't get up during the
night to urinate, as has been my routine for the past few years. I
usually have to get up sometime around 4 AM, or thereabouts, to relieve
myself.
The next night, I tried it again with the two aspirins. Same thing.
Eight hours of sleep without getting up during the night. This has
worked for the past 4 nights, but I still have to make the few trips to
the bathroom in the first couple of hours of the day. I don't know if
this would work for me with the other pain relievers, like ibuprofen, or
acetaminophen, but I have always used aspirin for pain, headaches, and
its reported benefit for cholesterol. I actually take one a day with my
morning medications, vitamins, and supplements, none of which are for
BPH.  I don't know if the aspirin is having any effect on the prostate
itself, but just that mid-night trip saver is welcome. BTW, that aspirin
is the generic 325 mg type.
Those of you who cannot take aspirin can try the others to see if it
works for you. Let us know if anything helps
