I'm a bit worried because my doctor just prescribed me Urimax 0.4 tablets, but I know it's typically meant for men. Can women safely take it too? Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

Urimax 0.4 mg is commonly prescribed for men to manage symptoms of an enlarged prostate, but it can also be prescribed for women in certain cases, such as for treating urinary symptoms related to bladder issues. However, it is important to follow your doctor's instructions. Potential side effects may include dizziness, headaches, or gastrointestinal disturbances, so it's essential to monitor for any changes. Always consult your doctor if you experience any discomfort.

Question

I'm curious about Manforce tablets and if they have any side effects on men's sexual power or penis. Could you provide some insight into this?

I'm really starting to worry about this sharp pain in my lower left abdomen that spreads towards my groin. The ultrasound showed a 5.9 mm stone in my left mid ureter, around the L5S1 level, and there's some mild hydronephrosis in my left kidney with the upper ureter being dilated. A urologist suggested urgent ureteroscopy, but I decided to try some home remedies instead. After about ten days, I had another ultrasound and it seems like the stone is now in the lower ureter just below where the iliac vessels cross, but there's still mild hydronephrosis and this proximal hydroureter situation going on. I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if possible and would prefer to try medication. Is that a viable option, or should I prepare for the ureteroscopy?
