Brief Answer:
Most probably, a STRICTURE URETHRA is causing your issue

Detailed Answer:

Welcome to the forum.

It is a treatable problem.

Your symptoms, like low urine flow rate and high residual urine point towards narrowing of the urine passage called STRICTURE.

To confirm the same, you need to undergo a test called an "ASCENDING URETHROGRAM" (AUG) under antibiotic cover.

Before that, urine culture test needs to be done and made sure that urine is sterile.
Once we have the urethrogram (AUG), WE CAN plan further line of management.

Kindly get back for doubts if any,
Sincerely,

I am of 31 years
USG i have been diagnosed of prostate of volume 16cc. prostate gland weight 25 gms .
Prevoid UB volume 503cc
Postvoid UB Volume 358 cc
I have been advised to take ALFOO for 30 days.
I AM TAKING ALFOO FOR LAST 40 DAYS. BUT NO BENEFIT. NOW MY DOCTOR START ONE MORE MEDICINE DAILY URIMAX 0.4MG MORNING TIME AND ALFOO AT NIGHT.NOW I feels better after using the medicine
Will it create any serious problem due to prolonged use? .. For how long it is to taken ?

As I am 31 years of age, whether prostate enlargement is abnormal .
Is ALFOO AND URIMAX is OK or any other drug will be better?

Brief Answer:
Stricture and not prostate.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back.
Unfortunately, my message to you has not reached.
I suspect stricture as the cause for your problems and not prostate.
Alfoo and Urimax are nearly the same and hence should not be combined.
Also, they both can affect sexual life and hence need to be stopped.
Kindly proceed on the line of action suggested in my previous reply to get a diagnosis and then proceed.

Brief Answer:
Kindly proceed with having family.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back.
To diagnose DSD, urodynamic study (cystometrogram) is a must, but i can't see that in the battery of tests done.
The medicines are unlikely to have an impact on the baby and you may proceed with family life.
You may continue ALFOO if it gives you relief from symptoms.
