prettymuch the more frequent, the more yellow, the more "thick" and more short the stream then the more likely it is you got some sorta prostate problem.
luckly my problem was kidney based...or unlucky as i have kidney stones :(

I feel your pain.. I just went through kidney stones last month.. actually passed the sucker on my birthday. :(

You'd only have diabetes if you had unquenchable thirst with your frequent urination. So you probably don't have to worry about that.

I also have to go to the bathroom frequently-- I cut back on my soda intake recently and started drinking water instead. I think my problem is just that I've suddenly started drinking much more water than I used to.

Do you drink a lot of caffeine? It's a diuretic.
good call ladybuggy

Ooh, he could be right -- overweight, frequent urination... I saw an episode of Scrubs about it, so I think I'm perfectly qualified to confirm this diagnosis. Definitely diabetes.
Stop talking crap.
You can't make that kind of diagnosis unless he takes his pants off first, you idiot.
Ahh, my bad. Nocturnal -- we're going to need photos of your junk.

Yes, this is correct... overweight is a risk factor.
