Natural remedies & lifestyle tips

- Cut back on caffeine and alcohol, which can make urinary symptoms worse
- Empty your bladder fully when you go, and do not hold urine for long periods
- Stay physically active

Talk with your doctor. Urinary symptoms can have many causes, so get them checked by a doctor rather than self-treating. See a doctor right away if you cannot urinate at all, see blood in your urine, have pain with fever and chills, or have severe lower belly pain. Research to date suggests saw palmetto on its own is probably not helpful for enlarged-prostate symptoms; less is known about combination products. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking any supplement with prescription medicine.
