2- How often do you need to urinate again less than two hours after urinating?
3- How often do you stop and start a few times while urinating?
4- How often did you have difficulty holding your urine?
5- How often have you felt a decrease in the force of your urine flow?
6- How often did you strain or strain to start urinating?

0 if any of the above questions are answered,
1 if it is thought to be less than one in five
2 if less than half
Almost half is 3,
4 if more than half
All of them are scored as 5.

7- How many times a night did you get up to urinate from going to bed to getting up in the morning?
