Why it matters, and how we ranked them · By the Seloria Team · 6 min read
It's half past two. You've been up once already. You go again, get back into bed, and lie there wondering whether that's it for the night or whether there's another trip coming.
In the daytime it follows you around. You check where the services are before a long drive. You sit on the aisle at the cinema. You've cut out the evening cuppa and the second pint, and it hasn't made much difference.
If that sounds familiar, you're far from alone, and it isn't something to just put up with. For most men it starts around the same age for the same reason. Once you understand why, it becomes much clearer what to look for.
If you've cut out the evening cuppa and the second pint and it's made no difference at all, there's a reason. It usually isn't what you're drinking.
Why it's happening, and why nobody tells you
It isn't just you, and it isn't something you have to put up with. The prostate sits just under the bladder and wraps around the tube you pass urine through. From middle age it slowly gets bigger in most men. As it grows it can squeeze that tube, so the bladder doesn't empty fully and sends the "I need to go" signal sooner, more often, and especially at night.
Because the prostate keeps growing. An enzyme called 5-alpha-reductase turns some of your testosterone into DHT, the hormone that drives prostate growth. It's the same hormone behind male pattern baldness. Calming that enzyme down is what a lot of the research on pumpkin seed oil and saw palmetto has looked at.
Not always. Night-time trips can also come from late drinks, caffeine and alcohol, poor sleep, sleep apnoea, diabetes or some medicines. That's why it's worth a quick chat with your GP, especially if things have changed recently.
Where pumpkin seed oil comes in
Pumpkin seed has been used for men's bladder comfort in Germany for decades, and researchers have studied it alongside saw palmetto for their effect on that same 5-alpha-reductase enzyme. Here are the two studies in men most people point to, warts and all.
of 1,431 men aged 50 to 80 had a clear improvement in their urinary symptom score eating pumpkin seed every day, compared with placebo. Capsules of pumpkin seed extract did no better than placebo in the same study.
took pumpkin seed oil, saw palmetto oil, or both. Symptom scores fell in each group, but the differences between groups, including placebo, were not statistically significant. Small, so it isn't proof.
We'll be straight with you: the evidence is promising but mixed, and nobody can promise results. Seloria is a food supplement, not a medicine, and it sits alongside your GP, not instead of them. But if you want something gentle to try before anything else, or to add to what you already do, this is where a lot of men start.
Cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil. The main ingredient. How much you get each day is the biggest difference between brands.
Saw palmetto. The classic partner for men, studied for the same enzyme. Most pumpkin seed oils on sale in the UK don't include it.
What to look for before you buy
- Pumpkin seed oil per day. Many capsules give 1,000mg. Check the daily amount, not the number on the front of the tub.
- Saw palmetto included. Whether you get both ingredients together, or have to buy and remember two separate products.
- No subscription. Plenty of brands sign you up to repeat orders by default.
- A real guarantee. These things change slowly, so you need long enough to find out if it works for you.
That's exactly how we scored the five in the table at the top. Here's each one in more detail.

Questions men ask us
I'm up three times a night. Will this stop it completely?
We can't promise that, and you should be wary of anyone who does. What men look for is fewer trips and getting back to sleep more easily. Night-time trips can have other causes too, so if they're new or getting worse, see your GP.
I'd rather not go to the GP about it. Do I need to?
We'd really encourage it. If your symptoms are new, getting worse, or you notice blood in your urine, pain, or trouble going at all, see your GP before taking anything. It's a simple check, and it rules out anything that needs proper treatment.
I'm already on tamsulosin or finasteride. Can I take this too?
Check with your pharmacist or GP first if you take any medication or have a health condition. Saw palmetto may not be suitable alongside some prostate or blood-thinning medicines.
Is this another big tablet to remember?
It's two small softgels with breakfast, once a day, and nothing at bedtime. One pouch lasts 30 days.
I've been caught out by subscriptions before. Is this one?
No. You buy once. Nothing renews, and there's nothing to cancel.
I've wasted money on things that didn't work. What if this doesn't?
Email us within 90 days and we'll refund you, even if the pouch is empty.
