Yes could be. If you are taking tamsulosin then this can cause retrograde ejaculation. Nothing to worry it will settle once you stop the medicine.

What I could see from your medications you are taking mexflow which is same as urimax. Kindly check the salt name as tamsulosin in whatever medicine you are taking. Tamsulosin 0.4 mg should be availaible in pakistan. Any pharmacist can help you.
