    finasteride takes quite some time to work. I would say it took 6 months to work.  If your husband stops taking it I would guess his prostate will start growing again. The sensation of urine in bladder may be urine that is being retained after urination. His urologist can do an ultrasound to see how much he is retaining. It could be a UTI also

    He could have overactive bladder too - which gives the sensation that you need to go when you actually don't. he should be checked to see if he's retaining too much.

    Take my comment for what it's worth; have him nix the caffeine and alcohol.
