Is There A Reason

[Stargazer]

why I often find I am unable to start to urinate. I need to go obviously or I would not be sitting on the seat but sometimes I have to actually give up trying. And even when it does start to flow, it will stop mid flow without me trying to stop and this can happen several times. Is there a cause? I know that this can be a male problem but is there any reason to be cooncerned?

How old are you?

[Stickybottle]

Prostate ?

[Stickybottle]

Large bladder stone ?

[dannyk13]

Small kidney stones passing through uretha?

[Stargazer]

I am in my 79th year and not likely to be stones as there is no pain accompanying my peeing.

Ask your GP for a PSA check in that case

I think that Stargazer is a lady.

Sticky bottle........the OPer is FEMALE.

There could be many causes but bladder neck disorders or psychological problems are the commonest.
If it is just a nuisance and doesn't really bother you, then just live with it.
If it affects your life to a negative degree, then see your GP.

Stones in the urinary tract are unusual in your case and description of symptoms
