What does it mean if sometimes after urination your prostate tightens up kinda like a cramp? It's happened 2 times in the last 3 days....just wondering what you guys know.

When was your PSA checked? Any difficulty voiding (peeing)? Has frequency of urination changed?Originally Posted by Perseverance1
Could be BPH or prostatitis. Blood work and a DRE may be needed.

I was thinking along the same lines... I can't get any medical exams for about 3 weeks (gotta leave Japan) but another thing it might be is dehydration. I know my fluid intake is lacking and my night sweats have been insane these last 3-4 days so I'm going to drink an additional 64oz of water and see if that helps while I'm waiting to get some labs run.
No difficulty with urination...but something that is relevant is that I used to sometimes get the worst rectal cramps after sex....like the shit was horrible. It was infrequent and randomly occurring but after a little research I saw it could be connected.

Are you cycling? What compounds?
Do you have access to Cialis?

Any AI? Keeping E2 levels down is critical for prostate health management.

do you have your estrogen under control?

I know cialis is prescribed for prostate enlargement. If i were you, i would get blood testing done immediately & go see a urologist ASAP. I've seen people with very bad prostates & the quality of life sucks. Take it seriously man. God Bless.

I've had an enlarged prostrate for years (not bad). I have a very weak stream and go in spurts a bit. Hard to get it all out. I used to take flow-max but stopped. It didn't do anything. But I don't have any serious problems. I've had a scan and it all seems to be OK ...cm

Yeah I hear ya, first thing I'm going to do when I get to the USA is get labs and my prostate checked. That's regardless of whether I still have this issue or not.

Is your urine dark orange? could be a sign of an infection. Your taking Tren which is a DHT compound. Are you drinking a lot of water? Urine concentration from being dehydrated could cause an infection and be the start of an enlarged prostate. It happened to me.

My urine is dark about 1 out of every 10 trips to the bathroom. Not as crazy as I heard though regarding the coloration while on tren...just like 'normal' not enough fluid consumption color.
I'm upping my water intake starting today so I'll see just what fruit my troubleshooting yields.

As a general rule, you should be voiding (peeing) about every 2-3 hours on average, your urine should be clear or nearly clear/colorless and odorless. That's a good guide that you are properly hydrated.
I've heard people recommend two gallons a day of water, especially if you're running tren. I find that a bit much, personally and too much water can be as troubling as too little. Usually a gallon or just over is about right for me to achieve the urinary conditions described above.
If your urine is dark, you aren't hydrating enough and you could be creating a number of problems including kidney stones and urethritis, both of which are extremely painful. More severe problems will ensue if you fail to stay properly hydrated for long durations.

Yeah I was fairly certain that my hydration was a likely candidate for the catalyst behind whatever is happening to me. Mostly because even though I'm drinking a gallon a day I probably sweat half of that out each night (these last couple nights at least). So hopefully me upping the water intake by 64oz as well as me taking my taurine regardless of cramps elsewhere happening or not will resolve the issue. I'm still going to get all the recommended tests/labs done as soon as I hit America though. I'll update in a couple days if I doesnt happen again...or whenever it does happen.
Knowledgeable Member
Absolutely. Lab tests will identify a problem or give you peace of mind if everything reads normal.
Increasing H2O and your taurine will help with hydration.
Good luck. I hope you get it resolved and there are no serious issues.

I used to battle trensomnia. My GH seems to be knocking that down now. Diphenhydramine (ingredient in benadryl) worked for me, but it doesn't help everyone. There are many ways to solve the trensomnia (GABA/benzo receptor complexes like Ambien, benzodiazepines, etc) but I always recommend starting with the more "benign" agents before pulling out the big guns.
Keep us posted on your medical progress.

Prostrate and Tren:
17β-hydroxyestra-4,9,11-trien-3-one (trenbolone) is a potent synthetic testosterone analogue which does not undergo 5α reduction to more potent metabolites (46). As such, trenbolone may induce less growth in prostate and other androgenic tissues which highly express 5α reductase. This is in contrast to testosterone, which has approximately three fold greater potency in androgenic tissues, which highly express 5α reductase (63), due to its conversion to dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
The primary purpose of this study was to determine the effects of trenbolone-enanthate (TREN; a slowly released trenbolone ester) on a variety of androgen sensitive tissues, including skeletal muscle, bone, visceral adiposity, hemoglobin, and the prostate of rodents. Because trenbolone is selectively metabolized to weaker androgens in vivo, they hypothesized that TREN will produce dose-dependent anabolic effects in skeletal muscle, bone, and fat that are at least equal to those of supraphysiological testosterone, while producing a smaller increase in hemoglobin and less growth of the prostate. Their findings indicate that TREN has advantages over supraphysiologic testosterone and supports the need for future pre-clinical studies examining the viability of TREN as an option for androgen replacement therapy.
Yarrow JF, Conover CF, McCoy SC, et al. 17β-hydroxyestra-4,9,11-trien-3-one (Trenbolone) Exhibits Tissue Selective Anabolic Activity: Effects on Muscle, Bone, Adiposity, Hemoglobin, and Prostate. American Journal of Physiology - Endocrinology And Metabolism. 17β-hydroxyestra-4,9,11-trien-3-one (Trenbolone) Exhibits Tissue Selective Anabolic Activity: Effects on Muscle, Bone, Adiposity, Hemoglobin, and Prostate — AJP - Endo
Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) now under development can protect against muscle and bone loss, without causing prostate growth or polycythemia. 17β-hydroxyestra-4,9,11-trien-3-one (trenbolone), a potent testosterone analogue, may have SARM-like actions because, unlike testosterone, trenbolone does not undergo tissue-specific 5α reduction to form more potent androgens. We tested the hypothesis that trenbolone-enanthate (TREN) might prevent orchiectomy-induced losses in muscle and bone and visceral fat accumulation, without increasing prostate mass or resulting in adverse hemoglobin elevations.
Male F344 rats aged three months underwent orchiectomy or remained intact and were administered graded doses of TREN, supraphysiologic testosterone-enanthate, or vehicle for 29 days. In both intact and orchiectomized animals, all TREN doses and supraphysiologic testosterone-enanthate augmented androgen-sensitive levator ani/bulbocavernosus muscle mass by 35-40% above Shams (p≤0.001), and produced a dose-dependent partial protection against orchiectomy-induced total and trabecular bone mineral density losses (p<0.05) and visceral fat accumulation (p<0.05). The lowest doses of TREN successfully maintained prostate mass and hemoglobin concentrations at Sham levels in both intact and orchiectomized animals; whereas supraphysiologic testosterone-enanthate and high-dose TREN elevated prostate mass by 84% and 68%, respectively (p<0.01).
In summary, low dose administration of the non-5α reducible androgen TREN maintains prostate mass and hemoglobin concentrations near the level of Shams, while producing potent myotrophic actions in skeletal muscle and partial protection against orchiectomy-induced bone loss and visceral fat accumulation. Our findings indicate that TREN has advantages over supraphysiologic testosterone and supports the need for future pre-clinical studies examining the viability of TREN as an option for androgen replacement therapy.

I would drink as much water as possible to keep you flowing well.

Glad it's clearing up. Still have your PSA checked when you can. It's not an absolute marker but it will at least indicate if further examination is needed.

Thanks.

It could be many things or nothing…but you need to see a doctor. Ask the doc if he recommends natural prostate supplements or any particular diet that could be an easy fix. One of the most reliable supplements is Super Beta Prostate.It contains beta-sitosterol and about a dozen other minerals that you need in trace amounts. Hope you feel normal soon.
