Management of Men With Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia During and After COVID-19

The possible increased risk of severe Covid-19 cases in men due to higher androgen levels, and how taking medications such as finasteride, dutasteride, spironolactone, enzalutamide, or canabidiol might help mitigate the severity of the disease.

The user experienced bladder and prostate discomfort after taking finasteride and stopped the medication, but symptoms returned upon resuming at a lower dose. The doctor suggested trying dutasteride as an alternative.

The user has been on 1mg finasteride for a year, experiencing low libido and moderate erectile issues. They are considering using Cialis daily with finasteride long term to address these side effects.

A user reports persistent sexual side effects three months after stopping finasteride, despite a healthy lifestyle and supplements. They express concern over the lack of libido and infrequent erections.

A user discusses dealing with lower libido caused by finasteride, considering using ED meds but unsure due to age. Replies suggest natural libido fluctuations, holistic approaches, and managing anxiety.

Finasteride may affect prostate sensation and size, with some users reporting easier urination. Concerns exist about prostate shrinkage even at lower doses.
