I am using ezetimibe as a prostate shrinker. Yes, I know it is not recommended for that, yes, I know there are no human trials. I am only in the first month so I don't know if it works yet. I am encouraged that there is no evidence of prostate atrophy, or sexual disfunction. I will report back from time to time to say how it is going. The reason there are no human trials, ( the computer says) is because there are other drugs, such as Dutasteride, made for this. These drugs, however have sexual side effects, so I want to try this.

I have often seen many things written about both. Medications, "They are band aid and will stop working eventually, you need to get surgery". Surgery," My procedure went fine, I wish I would have done it years ago", or, " Surgery was the worst option I picked, no improvement and I had to get it redone 5 years later". It would seem surgery would be a last resort since it is not perfect anyway.

Does anyone out there get an erection from having to piss at night? I do and I am starting to think it is interfering with my ability to void. When I was younger and did not have BPH I would have a hard time pissing if I had an erection. Now, it is like the BPH is causing it? Anyone else with this problem?

The best time of day to take alfuzosin? I recently switched from 6 PM to noon. The nights have been not good. Does it matter? I am going back to 6 PM.
