Wondering what’s caused my bph!

[Blindbeggar83]

hi I was diagnosed with bph earlier this year, last August I went into full urine retention.

im 41 so relatively young for this.

Sometime in late 22’ I started taking nicotinamide b3 500mg. A while after I started to get up in the night to pee.

In august 23 I was taking 3000mg nicotinamide a day for 2 weeks before I suddenly stopped peeing.

im just wondering if anyone else has been on nicotinamide and ended up having enlarged prostate?

many thanks

Rob

I have been prescribed tamoslosin which I’m not taking.

I’m taking pumpkin seed oil capsules which have helped. Although today I’ve been having trouble emptying my bladder fully. Interestingly I’ve been taking a lower amount of nicotinamide for the past 2/3weeks.

Do a search on H.U. history for lots of posts regarding BPH.
