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."

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."

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 congested. 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 an 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."
