From the perspective of popular science, using one minute to clear urine to determine prostate health is a simple, practical, and easy to determine method, which is very practical for the general public. Of course, some objective reasons can also lead to a failure to clear urine within one minute, such as drinking a large amount of water and excessive urine.
In addition, experts point out that there are many signals of prostate disease. In addition to significantly increasing the duration of urination, it is also important to see whether the continuity of urination is good, whether there is a ticking sensation, whether urination is difficult, and whether the urinary line is significantly thinner in the later stage of urination. If any of these issues are found, it is necessary to promptly go to the hospital for relevant examinations. At the same time, the increase in the frequency of nocturnal urination in middle-aged and elderly men is also a symptom of prostate problems.
Experts say that occupations that require prolonged urination tolerance are high-risk occupations and pose significant health risks to men. Because tolerance to urination can easily accelerate bladder aging, directly affecting urination, leading to frequent retention of urine in the bladder, and even inducing other complications such as urinary tract infections, cystitis or stones, hematuria, and acute renal failure, accelerating the chance of complications associated with prostate hyperplasia. Therefore, experts remind men who need to endure urination for a long time to pay more attention to their prostate health, and if they find any discomfort, they should promptly go to the hospital for examination.
