Patients who visited the family medicine outpatient clinic were invited to answer a self-administered questionnaire. It included questions on evidence of lower urinary tract symptoms (modified Overactive Bladder-Validated 8-question Screener [OAB-V8]), relevant medical and surgical history, and demographic data. Relationship between OAB and other independent variables were analyzed using chi-square and risk ratio (RR) analysis.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Of 325 questionnaires distributed, 311 were returned completed. Patients ranged from 18 to 97 years, the majority women (74.0%) and African American (74.3%). OAB was present in 60.5% of men and 48.3% of women (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.058). OAB was significantly associated with obesity (BMI &gt; = 30) in women (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.018, RR = 1.72), specifically obese premenopausal women (age &lt; 55 years) (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.011, RR = 1.98).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>OAB prevalence is more than double and higher in men than previously reported.
