I'm 94 and have been dealing with prostate issues. I've been on Urimax 0.4 mg at night for about a year. Since starting it, I've noticed that I end up needing to pee more often during the night, which means I can't really get a good night's sleep. Do you think it would be okay if I switched to taking Urimax during the day instead? I'm really hoping for a way to sleep better.

You can consult your doctor about taking Urimax (Tamsulosin) 0.4mg in the morning instead of nighttime to minimize nocturia (frequent urination at night) and improve sleep quality; however, it's essential to discuss this change with your doctor, as they may need to monitor your prostate symptoms and adjust your treatment plan accordingly to ensure optimal management of your benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

I've noticed these red dots appearing on the head of my penis, and they tend to vanish after a couple of days only to come back again. It's weird because when they show up, I get a mild burning feeling, but there's no itching. Do you have any idea what might be causing this cycle of disappearing and reappearing red dots?

I've been dealing with a urinary tract infection that lasted for nearly 2 months, from mid-February to mid-April. I initially thought this was why I couldn't ejaculate after masturbation during that period. Even though I'm now cured of the UTI, I'm worried because things aren't back to normal. After an orgasm, only a little semen comes out, and my penis feels really dry all the time. I'm really scared about this situation but I'm hesitant to visit a doctor because I'm still single. What could be causing this, and what should I do?
Hi there..dry ejaculation ie man doesn't ejaculate semen after climax or releases very little.. many causes like repeated ejaculations use up al body's semen and hence further ejaculate can be dry, or Blocked sperm duct (ejaculatory duct obstruction), Certain medications used to treat high blood pressure, enlarged prostate and mood disorders, Genetic abnormalities of the reproductive system, Male hypogonadism (testosterone deficiency), retrograde ejaculation is common cause of dry ejaculate. Any surgery done over prostate, urethra could also cause.. sometimes dehydration also causes less semen.. have more fluids, don't be anxious about this, have proper nutritious food, maintain hygiene in private parts.. consult sexologist and urologist once.. there is nothing to be ashamed or scared to visit doctor for this problem since your single, as this needs evaluation and treatment as this could lead to infertility in future.
