Study design This study will use the format of a randomised controlled trial. 200 new patients with uncomplicated LUTS will be randomised to either attend or not attend (standard therapy) a self-management programme. The programme provides education, reassurance, prostate cancer risk, advice on lifestyle modifications (e.g. fluids - type and amount), concurrent medication re-scheduling and behavioural changes (double-voiding, strategies for dribbling, and bladder re-training). These strategies are learnt through group discussion, problem solving and goal setting.
