Don’t take any medicine without any doctor consent. Please visit a nearby physician. It’s not serious.

At age 60, a prostate size of 26.3cc with PSA 3.13 is within normal range, and since your urinary symptoms have improved, there is no urgent concern. Persistent urine smell could be due to dehydration, diet, or a low-grade urinary infection. Please consult a urologist for a urine test and follow-up, as timely checks help prevent prostate or kidney-related complications.

I understand your concern. Your prostate size (26.3 cc) is within normal limits, and PSA (3.13) is also acceptable for your age. Since your urination is now comfortable, that’s reassuring. The smell in urine could be due to mild dehydration, certain foods, or sometimes infection. I’d suggest:

Drink 2–2.5 L water daily.

Avoid excess coffee/tea/spicy food for a while.

If the smell persists beyond a week, or you notice burning, fever, or cloudy urine, please get a urine routine and culture test to rule out infection.

Follow up with your urologist if any new urinary symptoms appear.

Given your age and symptoms, it’s essential to keep an eye on your prostate and ensure no underlying issues are present. The slightly increased prostate volume is not unusual for your age, as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is pretty common in men over 50. Your PSA level is within a range where it’s advisable to monitor, but it doesn’t immediately indicate a serious problem. The previous urination issues you experienced are possibly linked to BPH or a transient urinary tract infection that resolved with medication. The odor in your urine might be a residual effect of the earlier condition or something as simple as dietary influences, like certain foods or medications. First, increase your fluid intake to ensure proper hydration and see if the smell persists. Additionally, it would be wise to watch for any change in urination patterns or accompanying symptoms like fever or persistent pain, which could indicate another urinary tract infection. Since you’ve had a prostate-related issue before, maintaining regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider is crucial to keep an eye on the prostate size and PSA levels. Keep track of any new symptoms, even if mild, and report them during these visits. You may consider a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats to support overall prostate health. Avoid excessive caffeine and spicy foods, which can exacerbate urinary symptoms. If the odor in your urine persists despite these measures or if you notice any other symptoms, a urinalysis could be helpful to rule out any infection or other underlying issues.
