For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Yes, it helped my urinary flow but the dry ejaculation and lower sex drive are a deal breaker for me! I'm going back to Flomax or using nothing. I really like sex!"

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Rapaflo works just as well as Flomax in terms of flow and I don't get as dizzy or conjested. It felt weird having no ejaculate and my orgasm was not as intense as it was with Flomax. "

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "The retrograde ejaculation (no semen) and decreased libido are not worth the benefits for sexually active men. If these side effects are of no concern then try it but I hated it."

"Since beginning my twenty-one day trial, I have experienced stuffy nasal passages, ejaculate free orgasms, decreased libido, and increased flow. This all in a eight day period. I will likely look for another medicine, because of the sexual side effects. I am a 56 year old male, who is otherwise healthy, with the exception of occasional erectile dysfunction, and a moderate case of COPD. "
