Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride and pseudoephedrine

I know that the stuff is supposed to clear the nose... but I use it to help me concentrate better at work and college; it gives me incredible focus.
I used to take Ephedra pills but those are now banned. Luckily pseudoephedrine works just as well. Typically I take 120mg with coffee in the morning (about 10am) and that will last until 6pm for sure (sometimes longer, hence my unfortunate "whiskey dick" experience).
Dry mouth, horribly bad breath, lots of urinating, difficulty in sqeezing out the last few urine drops, itchy scalp, and "whiskey dick" are some of the side-effects.

I have been taking pseudoephedrine for many years for relief of nasal stuffiness. In the past 5-6 months I have been experiencing urinary retention, going to the emergency room once. I read the warnings of possible side effects, one being urninary retention--in men. I am a woman, no prostate gland involved here. In looking back at any of the symptoms and when they occurred, they occurred during the time I was taking pseudoephedrine. I have found no possible side effects listed referring to women having urinary retention. Has any other woman out there had this occur?
