I take Avodart (Dutasteride) 0.5 mg tabs twice a week for the past 6 months. I lowered the dose when I developed gynecomastia (breast tissue). Avodart has a long half life. Will it still work to help my benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)? I have been taking Avodart for 5 years and it has been very helpful.
I am suffering from BPH for the last 4 years and I am taking DUTASTERIDE (AVODART) and Alfuzosin .
Unfortunately , these meds do not help much since few months ago.
I also about a new procedure named: gat-goren (GG), that sounds as non-pervasive.
Did anyone hear about the GG procedure and can share experience or knowledge about that ?
Hello , i am 21 years old and to control hairfall i consulted a dermatologist and he prescribed ne a dose of 1 dutasteride tablet everyday for 20 days. I have completed 10 days of medication though it's helping in hair fall control many side effects too are coming out as:
-reduced sex drive
-testicle pain a little bit
-thin ejaculation
Will it be worth taking the tablets for another 10 days?
If your father has been prescribed a medication called dutasteride for treatment of the BPH, it is possible that the diclofenac was interacting with it and leading to his problems with urination.
However, it is possible that the difficulty in urination could be due to the BPH itself and not related to the possible drug interaction. If the problem is due to an enlarged prostate, it would be better to have him undergo some procedures such as PVP (photoselective vaporization) to treat the BPH.
5 mcg calcitriol, some NSAIDs, and some vitamin E daily. I also took dutasteride for a total of 17 months. (On-and-off dutasteride convinced me that I could never endure serious ADT. Thus my "watchful waiting" could only be waiting for metastasis and death (or for the recent good news).
I have no god and don't work with radioactive materials or unusual chemicals. Something in my simple faddish regimen apparently helped with my cancer. I hope it can help others.
Hi,
Dutasteride or Avodart prevents the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the body. DHT is involved in the development of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
This medicine helps improve urinary flow and may also reduce your need for prostate surgery later on.
However, it is recommended that you take this medication exactly as it was prescribed for you. Do not take the medication in larger amounts, or take it for longer than recommended by your doctor.
Dutasteride is a powerful drug and still with much mystery.
Conflicting information about its half-life has been released with popular estimates including 10 days and a whole month.
The drug maker warns against blood donations prior to six months of cessation. I am no scientist but understand that Dutateride needs time much longer than 6 months to leave your system.
Fathers claiming to have fathered healthy boys speak too soon as the drug's effects may not emerge until puberty.
I am currently taking Dutasteride, but have taken Rapaflo, Myrbetrig and others over the years. They work for 3 months then right back to same urination issues. I am concerned about elevating PSA numbers but have not gotten answers after seeing 4 different urologist! Ideas ?
Thanks for your times!
Most of us have heard of the Linden Method. I personally don't know anyone who has actually shelled out the cash to try it, though.
I also read some reviews and they were all saying the Linden Method was a miracle, it saved their lives, it works immediately, blah, blah,blah. Then I realized that all these reviews had come from the Linden organization itself. Google something like "bad experience Linden Method," and read some entirely different reviews.
I was just reading the reviews and a lot of them are complaining about it being too loud..and motor breaking fast... do you mommies on here have any reviews and/or experiences with them?
