I think i'm relatively young (29) however I was/am having problems emptying my bladder when urinating. Basically I finish and then a few minutes later some urine is still dribbling. My doctor gave me samples of flomax about a week ago. Recently i've been noticing my erections are awful and orgasm is weak. I checked this message board to see if anyone else was having the same problem. Not sure whether I should keep taking this or switch to uroxatral, another drug that i've taken in the past to stop the dribbling

i've been taking flomax for about 7 years due to neurogenic bladder. also back problems. i have had no problem with this medication, and it makes or allows me me rather to urinate very well. i have had no loss in reduction of sperm or erection. this pill is a godsend for me. my age is 41.

Been on Flomax for 6 weeks. Seems to be of no value as far as frequent night time urination. Still get up multiple times. I have a feeling of malaise and zero libido and zero ejaculate. Also on Avodart for BPH and see no improvement. I think I will opt for either a laser or microwave treatment to reduce the prostate size at the bladder and get off these useless drugs.

I am a female taking narcotic pain medication due to a back injury. Those pills make it hard to pee. My doc put me on Flomax to help me empty my bladder. I have had swollen sinus every night when I sleep. I have extreme elbow, wrist and finger pain that lasts all day/night long. My legs and knees are very stiff and sore. If I stand on my feet for more than a couple of minutes, my soles ache. I feel extremely tired and exhausted. DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG!! Now that I am off of it, my retention problem is worse than ever before. I wish I would have seen this web page before starting this horrible drug.

I wasn't sure until I ran across this site, but flomax has seemed to retard both erections and ejaculate. I will stop flomax today. Joel

Works well.
Retrograde ejaculation not a problem (semen backs up into the bladder - so what, it comes out later)
This forum taught me that Flomax is the cause of
- ringing in my ears (now I'm relieved because I know what it is)
- sinuses plugging up
My urologist asked me to stop the Flomax and "see how it goes" - I've tried 2 times...each time I get kidney pain on the 3rd day. Taking Flomax again cures the pain. Now I take one every other day.
I'd like to stop it, but dribble pee and kidney pain are no fun either - what to do? what to do?
