Cialis (tadalafil) for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I'm a 70 year-old guy who has had BPH for over 10 years. Was taking Avodart, which worked OK, but had the sexual side effect of reducing the amount of semen I produced, which greatly impeded my sexual performance. Switched to 5 mg daily of Cialis 5 months ago. I was pleased to find that semen production returned to normal in about 2 months, which was the main reason for switching drugs. But much to my surprise I found that it reduced BPH symptoms by about 90%. It's turned out to be a miracle drug for me--no side affects that I'm aware of. Enhanced erections is an extra benefit."

For Erectile Dysfunction "Hi, I'm 76 and in great shape, 5'9', 152 pounds. I run 25-30 miles a week, lift weights and do yoga. About 15 years ago I started suffering from ED. My doc put me on 2.5 mg as needed. It worked! My erections were the best I had had in years. Well, 'as needed' turned out to be almost daily with my new lady friend. As I've gotten older the as needed dosage increased to 10 mg but it still worked. Last year my doc asked me if I thought the dosage was working as I wished. I said it was but at times I had to say to my lady friend 'Wait, give me about an hour.' He told me to start taking the 10mg every third day and if I knew we were going to have sex take a 2.5mg 30 minutes before. It's been amazing, even if I don't take the 2.5mg. With just a little foreplay my penis is erect like I was a teenager. My erection isn't bigger but I do believe my flaccid penis is bigger, even my lady friend has commented about it. I know I'm very fortunate at my age to be very sexually active."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Everything else failed or the side effects were terrible for me. The Cialis 5mg daily has kept my prostate from enlarging and, per my doctor, reduced the size. No side effects from Cialis 5mg for me, and the benefits are great."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm 53 years old and in good health but was finding that my erections were unreliable and would often be lost during foreplay before penetration. After three failures in a row I decided I had to do something. I take half of a 20mg Cialis and am ready to go in about 30 minutes. The erections are rock hard and I now have my confidence back knowing that they will not let me down. The pill is effective for about 2 days and I wake up with an erection next morning just like when I was in my 20's. I've been taking these for 9 months now with no side effects. Amazingly good medication. I wish I had got these years ago. They are expensive but by using half a pill which lasts all weekend it is well worth the cost."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm 6 foot 190lbs in relatively good shape. Smoke, high blood pressure don't drink alcohol. I have a very attractive new girlfriend 24. I suffered some performance anxiety the first 3 times. I couldn't get or keep it up. Went to Doctor, Testosterone levels normal, and he gave me a script for daily Cialis. After 3 days prep Anxiety Gone. Rock hard. Almost zero stimulation required. Just go and get some. Don't be embarrassed to ask. Its all worth it in the end. Trust me. Best idea ever."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I was scheduled for TURP invasive surgery for my BPH over 3 years ago. After talking to an East Indian friend of mine who also has the BPH (he's 72). He also opted for Cialis 10mg/daily. I started with 20mg daily but had erections all night long so I cut it to 10mg. I am 73 very athletic and workout with guys 25-35 years old without any feel of being behind them. I watch my weight which I maintain 140 lbs for 5ft.8 height. Instead of weight lifting etc.I do mostly stretching yoga exercises that keep my body toned and not to build the muscles. I look no more than 50 and still do the things (sex etc) like I am 25! Cialis 10mg/daily that I buy at fraction of the cost. It has made me urinate normally and don't have a single side effect as I work out lightly at the Gym 3-4 times a week. Sauna, Jaccuzzi and steam really helps the body after workout."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm a 41 year old with all the stresses and pressures of a man. I took 10mg (I halve a 20mg). I do get some redness flushes in the face and a slight headache the first time I took it. The results are good. I feel like it helps with holding back ejaculation to some degree, I get a good strong erection and after some intense foreplay and sex I had my first orgasm. I was able to maintain an erection for another orgasm and even attempted a third! My wife wasn't up to it, which was a good sign that we had both had a great time. She wasn't keen initially on me taking them but as a special occasion I think she won't put up a fight! I have the side effect of remaining quite full and my penis looks larger in a natural state."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I take cialis daily 5mg. I have been on it for 3 months. I did everything in the book to help my erections from eating good, exercising, testosterone therapy etc. None of it helped my erections become stable and dependable. So because my erections were 50/50 I suffered emotionally and it made it worse. When I started taking cialis I started at 2.5mg. Symptoms were back pain and headaches for a while. It took about a week and my erections improved. Over the 3 months I moved to 5mg. Side effects are little to none. At this dosage I get an erection everytime and has not failed me. If you suffer from mild to moderate erection issues like I had. Don't hesitate to give it a try. Side effects suck at first for me anyway but they go away."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm 29 I've been on this for about 2 years. I get mine free as I'm diabetic. Sometimes it's very hard for me to maintain an erection despite my age. This medication is amazing and I've never had a side effect from it ever. Sometimes I could lose my erection if I had a lot on my mind during sex I would go soft because I was thinking about something else. Not anymore, I have 20mg x4 split in half. So I get 8 serving from 4 tablets as recommended by my doctor. This can help even erectile dysfunction from psychological problems not just physical. 10/10"

Cialis (tadalafil) for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "68 years old. Primary problem: Erections not lasting long enough. Secondary problem: Starting to have to go urinate once or twice at night. Short term erections had ruined our prior healthy sex life and we started avoiding sex altogether, once a month or less. We were both bitter and angry most of the time. Tried 5 mg Cialis for a month on the free trial and cured both problems: Erections lasted long enough (more than half the time) and less waking to urinate. HOWEVER, Cialis made my heart race and beats to become irregular. Had to quit it. Didn't try to half the dose. Now on Levitra 5 mg (prior to sex, only) and no cardiac problems and I can manage to do sex 2 times a week, not enough for me, but the best I can do."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "Amazing. Using less and getting more than I thought. I was prescribed 5mg 'daily' tablets with the advice I could break them in half as 2.5mg daily has also been effective. At $144 for 30 pills this would offset the cost but I am finding an even better sequence as others have indicated. I found a 5mg pill at noon, Monday works EASILY into the evening of Wednesday. And another from Wednesday evening to Friday... maybe longer. The stuffy nose ends after a couple hours so noon is great time to be over the side effects. Good balance between a daily low dose and a high dose intended to be ready asap. Only problem is now that I can at any time. I think I want to all the time!"

Cialis (tadalafil) for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "When I was young I used to walk into a restroom and an old guy would be trying to pee. When I left he was still trying to pee. Well I ended up becoming that old guy. I’m 50 and I have been diagnosed with BPH. For the past 10 years I have had issues with my prostate. I have been in and out of the doctors and urologist offices. Also for the past few years I have had a tough time getting and maintaining an erection. I have been taking 5mg of Cialis a day for the past 60 days. Two words describe my experience wow / amazing. I can now pee without any problem. I'm ready anytime morning, noon, or night my wife and I want to have sex. Before I would have to concentrate to get an erection and maybe or maybe not whether I could"

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "My Dr. started me on daily Cialis (5mg.) because of erection problems due to my blood pressure medicine. It has been a huge help! In addition, we discovered that it has helped significantly with urine flow and the urge to go. I now usually get up only once per night. Recently my Dr. switched my blood pressure medicine from Diovan HCT to Losartan. Soon after I began having even better erections. I read that the combination of the two - Cialis and Losartan - can be a big help to Diabetics. "

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "It really works. I take 10 mg within 30 min of sex and I usually have no problems staying rock hard. Usually lasts around 36 hours (the drug...not being rock hard). I used prescription Lily brand for a couple of years but could not afford the price. Tried getting them online for the past two years and it works great! It's made by a generic company in India but I'm still alive :) I read that a lot of generic US drugs are made there. I believe Pfizer makes a lot there. I buy the 20 mg and cut in half with a pill splitter. I promise you I am not a sales rep, just trying to help others who may be in need but can't afford."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm almost 56 years old and I originally started on the 20 mg dose of Cialis a few years ago, I hate to say I did not notice much, and my doc suggested the once a day 5 mg dose, I thought less, how will that work??? he was RIGHT. The 5mg does work most of the time for me! I also have low T and I self inject weekly, however, that alone by itself was not enough. the combination of the testosterone injections and the 5mg Cialis works. I have also discovered that if I take half a pill 6 hours before bed time and then the other half 2 hours before bed time, it is MUCH MUCH MUCH more effective than when I took the 5mg when I got up in the morning even though it says it lasts 18 hours, I have not experienced that. Also by doing it this way, I wake up like a teenager so if the opportunity presents itself, I am ready! good luck guys, this combination is the closet thing I have found to the fountain of youth! My insurance wont cover it though"

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I'm 51 and my partner is 47. He has had some difficulty with full erections on and off his whole life. For awhile now, its has been more marshmallow than wood. Things have declined. I encouraged him to see his doctor. As a result, we have just tried the very first 10 mg tab. Result? Incredible erection, great sex for us both, and most important - he feels like himself. He doesn't feel like something strange has taken over his experience. Nothing artificial about it. More like being restored. And no side effects so far. We are both very pleased."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "64 yr old. Tried taking 1/2 of 5mg daily for two weeks and had severe acid reflux pain. Stopped for a week and started taking whole 5mg. Reflux returned but I found that if I drink a glass of water when I feel burning it goes away. Tums or Rolaids help a bit as well. Back to better than youth condition with erections and BPH must be less because I can sleep all night now. The only problem I am having is whether my wife wants it as much as I do. Insurance is $95/30 or $150/90."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I have like many men with ED, I have had anxiety and confidence issues when coming to sex. For me it has definitely been more so a mental problem physical. Getting a erection alone had not been a problem, just when the pressure of having intercourse was there was when I had a problem getting a full and sustainable erection. I took a 20 milligram 36 hour Cialis pill and chopped it up in quarters. I took 1 quarter of a pill Friday afternoon. No joke, I had incredible and substainable sex for the next 30 hours with not one issue."

Cialis (tadalafil) for Erectile Dysfunction "I am 53 and have multiple sclerosis and have been in a wheelchair for 10 years. I got married this year and needed something that would help alleviate my ED problem. I tried Viagra but it has a window that made spontaneity nonexistent. I tried Cialis and all is well. The only problem I’ve found isn’t with the med itself but with the cost associated with it. I get my meds from the VA and they only give me 4 x 20 mg pills a month, I split them into approximately thirds. Now the good stuff- 1/3 of a pill will last @36 hours+ and will work multiple times, full erections that last as needed. I have loss of sensation due to the Multiple Sclerosis so sometimes ejaculating won’t happen every time but the med works as intended. So Cialis, thank you."
