What does apnea have to do with a full bladder and a constricted prostate?
When you gotta go, you gotta go - seems like having to go would tend to be a wake-up call...

Absolutely nothing. I have horrible sleep apnea (and use a CPAP) and at 57 years old I don't have to wake up to pee.

One has nothing to do with the other.

Prior to getting a CPAP I would wake up every 2 hours with an urgent need to pee. After getting the CPAP I sleep through the night with no problems.
I have no prostate issues and other than the CPAP didn’t make any other changes.

the point might be that we've been over treating prostate problems instead of treating the real reason why men are awakened during the night to pee....

as you know,some prostate treatments can be troublesome...
