Silodosin for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I can only say it will make urination easier, but it also will make a satisfying climax with ejaculation a fond distant memory. It takes a long time to wear off, so you don't need to take it daily."

Silodosin for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "The lack of semen freaked me out at first, but I got over it. It's like having a vasectomy, my friends tell me. But my erections are just as strong, and my orgasms are better."

Silodosin 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!"

Silodosin for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Rapaflo works great for me. No really significant side effects. Don't have the sex anymore, just a wonderful understanding wife. Sex is not everything. I would rather have the flow."

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

Silodosin 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."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I tried Hytrin, Flomax, then Hytrin again. Then I tried Silodyx, which works well except that no semen is ejaculated-sex is normal with shorter orgasms. It's totally unmessy, so my wife is happy!"
