A decrease in the flow of urine is typically associated with an enlargement of the prostate gland (which surrounds the urethra and can squeeze it) or a urinary tract infection which can cause swelling.

What factors may cause an increase in the flow of urine?

-Increased water intake. -Ingestion of a diuretic. -Certain illnesses.


What are some factors that can cause a rivers speed and discharge to decrease?

Factors that can cause a river's speed and discharge to decrease include reduced precipitation leading to lower water input, increased evaporation, and human activities such as damming that restrict flow. Additionally, changes in land use like deforestation can decrease runoff and thus reduce the speed and discharge of a river.


What is nomalignant enlargement of the prostate?

As a male ages, the prostate gradually enlarges. If it gets too large, it can cause a decrease in urine flow. This is called Benign Prostate Hyperplasia, also known as BPH. This is not cancer.


What factors cause increase in blood urea?

Factors that can cause an increase in blood urea include kidney dysfunction or disease, dehydration, high protein intake, certain medications, and conditions that cause breakdown of body tissues such as extensive muscle injury or cancer. Additionally, factors that decrease urine production or flow, like dehydration or kidney damage, can also result in elevated blood urea levels.


What causes a decrease in cash flow?

Many things can cause a decrease in cash flow including decrease in sales, increase in expenses, not collecting accounts receivables timely, and increase in interest rates.


What factors cause deposition?

Deposition occurs when sediment-carrying agents like wind, water, ice, or gravity lose their energy and can no longer transport sediment. Factors that contribute to deposition include a decrease in velocity, a change in direction, a decrease in the capacity of the agent to carry sediment, or obstacles that disrupt the flow.


What is the Daily urine flow rate in female?

The average daily urine flow rate in females is typically around 1-2 liters per day. This can vary depending on factors such as hydration level, age, and overall health. If you have concerns about your urine flow rate, it is best to consult with a healthcare provider.


Does cardiac output affect urine output?

Certainly. Decrease cardiac output would mean a decreased in blood flow to the kidneys, which would lead to reduced filtration, therefore urine output.


What factors increase the likelihood that alluvial will be deposited?

Factors that increase the likelihood of alluvial deposition include high sediment load carried by rivers, a decrease in water velocity due to a decrease in slope or flow rate, vegetation slowing down the flow of water, and the presence of large obstacles or obstacles in the river channel that disrupt the flow.


What could cause a stream to deposit the sediment?

A decrease in stream velocity due to factors such as a decrease in slope or widening of the stream channel can cause sediment to be deposited. When the stream's capacity to transport sediment is exceeded, it drops the sediment it was carrying. Additionally, changes in the stream's flow rate or turbulence levels can also result in sediment deposition.


What will the decrease of the light intensity on an LDR do to the ammeter reading?

The decrease of light intensity on an LDR will cause the resistance of the LDR to increase, which will result in a decrease in current flow through the circuit. As a result, the ammeter reading will decrease.


Can urinary tract infections cause urine leakage?

Yes, urinary tract infections can sometimes cause urine leakage, known as urinary incontinence. This can happen due to irritation and inflammation of the bladder and urethra, leading to difficulties in controlling urine flow.
