Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are commonly associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and represent significant bother among aging men. Bothersome LUTS secondary to BPH, including nocturia, significantly impact men's general health-related quality of life (QoL) as do sleep disturbances. However, very few studies have examined the relationship between the severity of BPH-related urinary symptoms and sleep disturbances. This review analyzes the recent studies that report the association between the bother and severity of LUTS secondary to BPH and the severity of sleep disturbance. In addition, we address the relationship between treating LUTS and the influence that it has on treating the sleep disorders.
