Poor sleep quality was related to the number of episodes of nocturia.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nScientists concluded repeated urination at night exhibits a major impact on sleep quality in patients with prostate enlargement and lower urinary tract symptoms. It\u2019s also useful to mention that sleep disruption due to nocturia also caused other problems such as daytime fatigue and decreased levels of general wellbeing.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nYou see, frequent urination at night shortens sleep duration and may cause severe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bensnaturalhealth.com\/blog\/general-health\/why-cant-i-sleep\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sleep problems<\/a>. That happens due to sleep fragmentation.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nYou sleep for a short period of time, wake up to urinate, struggle to fall asleep again, and the cycle continues. It can also lead to immune suppression.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nBesides BPH, other prostate tissue problems can affect the quality of sleep. Advanced prostate cancer is one example. Hormone therapy for prostate cancer, such as androgen deprivation therapy, can decrease the levels of sex hormones in the prostate cancer patient\u2019s body.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nReduced levels of sex hormones can cause various symptoms, including depression and anxiety, thus making it difficult for a patient with prostate carcinogenesis to fall asleep.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nFor that reason, healthcare providers need to focus on managing the side effects of prostate cancer treatment, especially in cases of advanced disease, in order to address sleep problems in patients with this serious prostate disease.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 id=\"sleep-and-prostate-cancer-risk\"><strong>Sleep and prostate cancer risk<\/strong><\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nIt\u2019s also useful to mention insufficient sleep can increase prostate cancer risk and thereby prostate cancer incidence. Conditions such as obstructive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bensnaturalhealth.com\/blog\/general-health\/sleep-apnea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sleep apnea<\/a> can induce an inflammatory response that results in prostate enlargement.
