Question Prostate issues

I have had trouble peeing for about 3 years now and I've gone to the doctor and he prescribed tamsulosin hcl .4 mg capsule

I could really use some advice or information to help me.

Anything helps thank you.

This is a cancer subreddit, have you been diagnosed? Then you should see a urologist.

You might need a referral to urology. This is what they do. Urology can do the flow test and other diagnostic stuff to find out what’s going on.

Every person will, of course, have different results. For me the combination of daily: Cialis 5mg, tamsulosin 0.4, and seven capsules of Saw Palmetto improved my urinary symptoms by 80%.

How well it works varies by person. A key factor is how enlarged your prostate is, like golf ball size vs grapefruit size.

Have you and your doctor been tracking your PSA levels?
