I am taking medication for anxiety. I am sexually active but my wife is my only partner. It doesnt hurt to urinate or burn after sex. I just have a difficult time starting the process to pee, and its not a steady stream. Starts and stops. Probably has been occuring for a few months now.

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thank you for getting back with the answers. I have gone through them. Your symptoms are suggestive of prostatic problem. Other differential is urinary tract infection. If i were your treating doctor then i would have advised following things:

- visit hospital and get :
> An appointment for a Consultant Urologist.
> ultrasound KUB done
> Urine complete examination

Both these labs will help in reaching the diagnosis. Further management will depend upon test results. Meanwhile drink adequate fluids including fresh juices and water & take good care of personal hygiene.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
