Enlarged prostate is very common in men. By the age of 50, one in two males experiences prostate enlargement and by the age of 80, this figure reaches about 90%. The prostate is located inside the male body, just below the bladder. The urethra, through which all urine passes, goes straight through the prostate. When the prostate grows, which it normally does when men get older, it squeezes the urethra, which can make urination difficult or even impossible.
Thus, enlarged prostate can affect bladder. How does enlarged prostate affect bladder? About half of all men with enlarged prostates experience symptoms. The constricted urethra makes it hard to empty your bladder, or to resist the urge to urinate.
