Thanks for your question on HCM.
Since you are having prostatic cancer, for your symptoms, I can think of 2 possibilities.
1. Urine infection
2. Local recurrence of prostate cancer.
Both these conditions can cause increased frequency of urination.
So I advice you to get done
1. Urine microscopic examination
2. Ultrasound examination of prostate.
So consult your doctor and discuss all these.
You may need antibiotic therapy for infection. And chemotherapy if local recurrence is found.
