Aslan Health Prostate Symptoms Checklist

Urinary changes often come on gradually, and they are easy to dismiss or hard to describe once you are in the exam room. This three-page checklist helps you record what you have noticed so your clinician can see the pattern. It accompanies the three-part Aslan Health podcast series on prostate health.

What is inside

• A record of 11 common urinary symptoms, from a weak or stop-start stream to waking at night to urinate, each marked from not present to nearly always. It is a preparation aid, not a scored medical test.

• Other changes worth reporting, including blood in the urine or semen, pain with ejaculation, fever or chills, and persistent bone pain.

• Space to note when symptoms began, what changed, what affects them, and how much they interfere with daily life on a 0 to 10 scale.

• Prompts for fluids, caffeine and alcohol, medicines, supplements, sleep, and health history.

• A visit-preparation checklist and room for your three most important questions.

The checklist draws on the 2026 American Urological Association guideline on urinary symptoms attributed to benign prostatic hyperplasia, along with patient information from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases and the National Cancer Institute. Sources are listed in the checklist.

Get urgent or emergency care now if you cannot urinate at all, have severe lower-abdominal, back, flank, or urinary-tract pain, or are rapidly becoming very unwell. Contact a healthcare professional promptly if you see blood in your urine, or if painful, frequent, or urgent urination occurs with fever or chills. This checklist cannot diagnose or rule out BPH, prostatitis, infection, bladder disease, or prostate cancer.

Use alongside the Aslan Health Prostate Care Guide and the Aslan Health Doctor Visit Guide, and listen to the companion episodes: Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3.
