Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern.

A very small amount of urine leakage after you have stopped urine is normal. It should be in drops only, less than 1 ml in quantity. It is due to the fact that in males, urinary sphinter is located away from urinary opening of penis. So when you stops urinating the small amount of urine which was passing through urethra remains & is slowly removed in form of drops even after you have stopped urinating.This is normal & nothing to be concerned about.
A prostrate problem is suspected when it takes time to come urine, when you start urinating. In this case urine comes with very little pressure & person takes a lot of time to urinate.

Hope this information helps
