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.

Dr. Himanshu Agarwal

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.

So just wanted to ask if it is safe to take it till this time.

Tamsulosin is safe to be taken for long term. Get a repeat uroflowmetry done to see the benefit of tamsulosin. If no major improvements then we may need to escalate therapy and add newer therapies. And get a urine examination done again along with post voidal residue. Review once done. Will guide you further.

Please do visit a surgeon. It can be due to BPH which is extremely common in this age group. Alpha blockers are generally used. Eg tamsulosin Regards.

It is good if you have used combination of deflazacort and tamsulosin. This is best for expulsion of stone but if still it has not come out and is giving you problem then better'to get it removed endoscopically by a urologist.

Hi, I was advised to tale roliflo OD 4, by my doctor as they were suspecting bph, as I was complaining of frequent urination especially twice at night, after taking this medicine now I am feeling reverse, and observing that there is less urine output and I have to make an effort to urinate, just want to know that is this normal and I hope this less urination will not cause any other complication.

It is better if instead of roliflo you take simple dynapress which contains simple tamsulosin. You will not have to apply pressure to pass urine if you take only dynapress.

Dear sir, I am suffering from BPH. Prostate enlargement and I am taking silodosin 8 mg. This leads to erectile dysfunction problem. I have already taken alfoo which causes palpitation. Can you suggest different medicine for BPH which has minimum side effects.

Urologist•Ludhiana

Every medicine for bph will have some side effects. Because you are sexually active for you alfoo is best. Otherwise other common drug is dutas t.it has tamsulosin which causes retrograde ejaculation. If you have completed your family you can try this.
