At your age of 29 years symptoms due to prostatic enlargement is rare. Since you have already underwent prostatic massage and culture after that you may have prostatitis at that time.Atomoxetine can cause these urinary symptoms also. How long and why it is to be taken will be better adviced by a psychiatrist to you. For urinary symptoms see an urologist so that he'll assess you and manage accordingly.
