Taken Avodart for 7 years. Told only other option was surgery. Worked for awhile, now getting up 4-5 times per night. Penis fully retracted - have to sit down to pee.

I use a product called Balanced Male. Also a herb called Shatavari ... Show Full Comment

I use a product called Balanced Male. Also a herb called Shatavari has helped a lot with erectile dysfunction. It also increases the fluid. I use a product from "The Raw Food World" called "Raw Wildcrafted Shatavari Extract. Do your own research and find what works for you.

medicine works great, however, trade-off occurred and I personally am not willing to make that trade :)
