Good morning my dad has recently had radiotherapy on his prostrate he is having a slow flow when passing urine is it ok to drink more to try and regulate the flow he hasn’t been drinking a lot as is scared he can’t pass urine.
I don't know how much your dad is drinking at the moment. Six to eight glasses of water are recommended daily. We have more information aboutdiet and prostate canceron our website.
If your dad is having changes to his urine flow, he should speak with his team at the hospital who knows his situation, he might find it helpful to talk with his specialist nurse (CNS).
I hope this helps a little. Please feel free to get back to us if you need any more information or support. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
