Poor Urine Flow
The causes of poor urine flow includes an enlarged prostate (hyperplasia or carcinoma), anatomical or functional urethral stricture, detrusor sphincter dyssynergia in a neurogenic bladder associated with, for example, spinal cord disease or injury, poorly-contracting detrusor muscle and in women, prolapse of the uterus or urethral mucous membrane. Uroflowmetry is a diagnostic test used to measure the flow of urine during urination. Urodynamic studies are an important way to gather information about how the lower urinary tract (the bladder, urethra and sphincter) work. These studies use special catheters to measure the pressure in the bladder, the urethra and the abdomen.
