Men who have benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a disorder in which the prostate gland enlarges, are more likely to have urine retention. Acute urinary retention affects about one out of every ten men over the age of 70 and about one out of every three men in their 80s over the course of five years. In women, acute urine retention is far less common. Acute urinary retention affects roughly 3 out of 100,000 women each year.
