I have been told that my prostrate is big and that could be the reason for
high PSA OF 7.2.  What do you think please?
How could prostate be reduced in size?

Botox Eases Symptoms of Enlarged Prostate
A small study of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, also known as
BPH or an enlarged prostate, shows Botox helps ease the condition, without
major side effects.

As a result of having red blood cells in my urine, my doctor
referred me to a urologist. I have edema and some other
symptoms of kidney disease. It's my "guess" that the blood
in the urine is the result of a kidney disease.

Has anyone had this experience?  I rode the stationary bike for 20
minutes at the gym today and my prostate felt like it was almost
spasming -- not pain, but a lot of pressure.  Right now I'm still on
Levaquin for my chronic prostatis (which was diagnosed after a 10

Watch for the latest edition of New England Journal of Medicine, due out
tomorrow, May 4th.  A study done claims 160 mg Saw Palmetto, 85 to 95% fatty
acid, taken 2x daily, offers no improvement to symptoms of BPH.

I've been on proscar for years, now insurance won't cover. Went to
urologist...he put me on flomax.I couldn't handle the stuff, it was like
being in a fog all day. Now, I'm to try cardura but he wants me to start
taking 8mg/day right from the start. Everything I've read says to ...

The question was asked quite some time ago as to if one could have the
seed therapy after having PVP.
I was in to see my URO today (3 week post PVP) and asked him the question.
He said yes.  Not right away of course.

I'm 50 years old.  In December 2005 my PSA was 5.26 then, after some
antiobiotics, went down to 4.6.  Doctor still felt that I needed a
biopsy which came back negative for malignancy.  However, I was
diagnosed with chronic prostatitis and BPH (prostate measuring 35cm).

Well it's been a year now since my surgery and sadly I have to say that the
retrograde seems permanent.   I have ejaculated a few times but very little
if any.  I was wondering if anyone has heard of any new treatments for
retrograde ejaculation.  I've done some google searches on ...

Damn it, I am rewriting this since I just lost a whole typewritten page
(over a half an hour) due to a power outage [boy does that piss me off - no
pun intended, since I do leak :-)].  So I will have to make this shorter,
without as much background as I had before.

I recently received this letter from a friend who has retro from a
PVP.  He gave me permission to pass it along to you.  As you know, I am
contemplating having a PVP, and will probably get retro.  So it's of
great interest to me to learn about others who have this condition, and

New here.  I've had BHP for years and its to the point that something needs
to be done.  Just had a cystocopy(sp) and my prostate is enlarged, but I
already knew that.  I've had three negative biopsies so far.  My doctor
recommends drugs or Greenlight.  I've already tried the ...

Question to the people that have researched Holap or practice it.  What

This is about my farther (now 75yrs). He had a TURP in 1994 because of
enlarge prostate.
Around 2004 ~ 2005 he started getting urine infections on and off. Then
he had a stroke in July 2005 (nominal aphasia) for that doctors gave

I have followed this NG for 5 years... practically since I started to have
symptoms of BPH.
After having read a lot of posts, that have helped me a lot, I think I must
counterchange by narrating my experience.
