Joe,
I am 43 and and between the ages of 32 and about 38 I was a serious bodybuilder. During this time, I went from about 170 pounds to about 230 pounds with very little fat. I was doing any drugs but was drinking a gallon of milk every day and eating protein on top of that. A few years into lifting I started having prostate problems similar to yours. When I lifted hard, particularly on leg days my prostate would really bother me for several days after. I have no idea what caused this, perhaps it's because your body is put under stress by lifting or perhaps the gland itself is bothered by the intense lifting. My suggestion to you is to lay off the heavy lifting. I tried everything there was and nothing helped except a reduction in heavy workouts.
good luck

Joe, I'm just catching up on my reading, so, hope that explains why I took so long to reply to your post. You mention that you are in great shape and have a high-protein diet. I know a number of weigh lifters, actually, body builders, and they punish their bodies big time. In addition to their high-protein meals they drink high-protein shakes of all sorts. So, here's my question...do you drink high-protein shakes to supplement your protein intake? If so, check the ingredients. Some proteinsupplements feed you amino acids, and under various innocent sounding herbs, growth hormones by the tons to help boost your metabolism...that may be the thing aggravating your prostate, if your doctor has already ruled out prostititis

Hi, I am not sure if this is the proper forum for this but I could use some help/advice.
I am 26yo and for the past year I have been experiencing some abnormal unrination problems. I have been doing some reading, and it seems to match some common prostate problems. I have difficulty starting at times, weak flow, I feel like I have to "push" to get all the urine out when I urinate. I wake up a few times a night (2-3). Finally, sometimes after I urinate, I will have the sensation to urinate again 5 minutes later.
Physically, I am in great shape, work out five days a week, drink tons of water, and eat a very healthy diet. I do have a high protein diet 200+grams/day, but I drink a lot of water to offset it and I have never taken any drugs/steroids. I should add that I drink water during the day, and try to cut down on fluids in the evening to prevent having to get up during the night (but I still have to get up a few times anyway).
From what I have been reading, my symptoms seem to parallel some common prostate problems, however I have not been able to find anyone as young as myself that has had prostate issues. Has anyone else heard of symptoms this young?
I have asked a few general phsyicians (during routine physicals) and they blow it off, and tell me to reduce my sodium intake (which is low to begin with) and they have never performed a digital prostate exam.
I will say I am not in any pain, at this point it is a bit on an inconvenience at times, but I want to adress the issue now, before it progresses into full blown problems.
Any advice, andectodes, or resources that you folks had would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
