For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Have been taking Jalyn for 3 months. Did experience better urine flow and fewer trips to the bathroom at night. Side effects are: constipation, dry ejaculation (no semen), decreased libido, dizziness, and hip pain. Might consider switching medication depending on if side effects worsen."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I have been taking Jalyn for about 4 months, and have experienced mild improvement in my urine stream. I get up once during the night. Have experienced decreased libido and an inability to ejaculate, which happened during the third month of use. Also had some mild dizziness during the first month."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Helped a lot. Made it a lot easier to urinate, but still not a strong stream, and I still have trouble fully emptying my bladder at night. Caused a lot of hair loss on my body, and I no longer ejaculate anything. Sex drive is also down. I still get up 8 times at night to urinate. My doctor has not been able to help with that."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Have taken the drug for about ten years now. PSA is constant around 2.3, familiar symptoms including dry ejaculation, breast enlargement, reduced libido, and nightly trips to the bathroom down to 1 (normal) or 2 a night. Size of prostate is/has been about 1/2 size originally measured in this time period. Small cancer sample with no change over this time period. Cannot attribute any other weaknesses or pains to the use of the drug. Doctor tells me over and over again it's a lifetime drug, which I am not fond of hearing. May consider surgery to remove prostate."
