Proscar has ruined my love life. I am unable to make love to my love. Do not take this medication. There are other options less severe.

I'm sure this helps some folks, but I put off taking it for years - in fear of the side effects I'd read about. I just used flomax. Finally, about a month ago, my flow had decreased to the point it was scaring me, so I tried 1 pill per day at my urologist's urging. For the first 4-5 days I had no problems. Then I had 3 days of misery as I tried 3 more days of 1 pill per day! The entire area between my legs was quite tender (I couldn't even sit without serious discomfort), my urination flow was reduced even more (and would take several seconds even to begin) and it now included a mild burning feeling, and I now had almost constant urges to urinate (making life and sleep very tough). On top of all of this, constipation! I stopped after 9th dose. It took about 10 days for things to gradually return to how they were prior to trying proscar.

I have used this product for about 5 weeks and it is definitely the best product I found for enlarged prostate problems. However, after using it for a few weeks I have developed a bleeding hemorroid. Have never had one before and I am 71 yo. Coincidence? Not sure.

Was in hospital with hemorraging from prostate into bladder. No cancer. Facing surgery but was given Proscar and Flomax as last thing to try. One week later bleeding stopped. Symptoms BPH eased. Then after 2 months odd sensations, pain in joints, no erections, so I decided to stop Proscar. I am grateful to Proscar for helping me through crisis w/o surgery, but now 15 months after crisis I use supplements, diet

I am an 85 year old male. I had a radical prostatectomy in early 1991. Initially my PSA dropped to zero or near zero. Four years later it had risen to 1.6 at which point my urologist prescribed 5 mg proscar twice a day and 125 mg flutamide three times a day. Later when my PSA started to rise again, the flutamide dosage was doubled to 250 mg three times a day. I have been on this protocol for 20 years. Although I have experienced several side effects (gynecomastia, osteoporosis, and compression fractures and hot flushes) these medications kept my cancer at bay. Recently, Medicare refused to cover more than 5 mg of proscar per day. I was finally able to get an exception so I am n back on my regular proscar dosage.

I was given a prescription for this drug by a urologist for an enlarged prostate. I had some problems getting up multiple times at night, like 10 or 12, to empty my bladder. Before taking the drug I began looking closely at what was in the food I was eating. Apple sauce for example, the chucky kind has lemon juice in it. I stopped eating apple sauce. I suspected that my bladder was as much or more at fault than my prostate. I cut back on ice cream, and some fruits that I knew irritated my urinary system. Never did take the proscar and I am having a better stream,and better sleep without the urgency I used to feel while getting up two times a night.I added Prostate Revive which is helping to calm the prostate too. Only suggestion I have is look at the contents of what you are eating or drinking and drop those things you know are causing you harm.
