I have been taking Solifenacin for my bladder for many years, however the price for next year hass gone DRTAMATICALLY up. The alternatives my GP gave ne are Oxybutinin and Ditropan. Has anyone had experience with either of these, good or bad?

Hello, I've recently been prescribed Tamsulosin for an enlarged prostate (BPH I am assuming, until told otherwise) following a couple of UTIs that floored me and frequency of urination/ low pressure. I've got them but haven't taken them yet as I'm a little bothered about the potential side effects.

I just wanted to share this as sometimes it feels like I’m alone or maybe some people can relate to this but anyway I just thought I’d share my experience. I’m 41. I started developing BPH symptoms towards the middle end of 2022 when I noticed I was struggling to empty my bladder before bed. After

Flow can be poor. I have had all the prostate tests and a TURP a few years ago but I am getting really frustrated

I’ve been taking tamsulosin for 6 days now. The past few days were ok but today I was “with” my missus, and there was no ejaculation. Is this going to happen every time?

Hello. Does anyone have advice on the use of estriol cream for vaginal atrophy.
