I've been having issues with frequent urination and incomplete emptying of my bladder for years now, and honestly, it's really frustrating. I've seen a urologist and went through all sorts of tests like kidney and abdomen ultrasounds, cystoscopy, blood sugar checks, and everything came back normal. I've also taken different medications for urinary and bladder infections, as recommended by my doctor, but nothing has worked. Lately, I've noticed this white liquid occasionally in my urine at night, and it's freaking me out a bit. I've tried so many things, but I'm not seeing any results. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

Consult a urologist again to discuss: - Urodynamic tests to assess bladder function - Pelvic floor physical therapy - Consider consulting a nephrologist to rule out kidney issues - Get tested for: - Urine culture and sensitivity - Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test (if not done already) - Lifestyle changes: - Practice pelvic floor exercises (Kegel exercises) - Manage fluid intake - Avoid irritants like caffeine and spicy foods
