Is this avoidable? Or the result of bad health or bad habits?

Typically prostate issues. The Prostate gland has a hole through the middle (like a donut) and the urethra passes through the hole. Its pretty common in older men for the prostate to enlarge. This makes the hole that the urethra passes through smaller, which can compress the urethra and partially obstruct urine flow, so it can come out as a trickle or in spurts instead of a normal stream. There are some risk factors like diabetes and obesity, but it’s not necessarily the result of bad health or bad habits. It’s just something that happens to a lot of men as they get older – even men in perfect health.
