To the Editor: In my primary care internal medicine practice, the most common symptoms that I hear of from men with prostatic hyperplasia are nocturia and urinary frequency. Could Dr. Gormley and his colleagues (Oct. 22 issue)1 comment on why these symptoms were not included in their symptom questionnaire? In addition, although I would like to ameliorate the symptoms of the disorder in my patients, I find it difficult to decide which ones should be treated with finasteride. Did the authors find that men with any particular group of symptoms and signs were more likely to respond to finasteride?
