Just hijacking to add a public health warning about BPH. Like many men as they get older, I was getting up several times a night to pee. Thought I would just put up with it until it got worse.

I went on a yacht for the weekend, drank quite a few beers and crashed to sleep.

I awoke to find out I couldn't pee at all. I can't describe how painful things were by the time I staggered into the emergency department that evening. Definitely the worst experience of my life. A few weeks later a guy was winched off a boat by helicopter with the same condition - one of his mates had been tasked with catheterising him using the rubber fuel hose from the boat's engine, but was unsuccessful.

If you are having trouble urinating, seek medical attention - don't ignore it.

Is there some correlation to boats or just happenstance?

Just coincidence, situations where one might drink too much and be isolated from medical care.

Ignoring prostate issues for 6 months got me to the edge of sanity - I was 26 then and was told there was no way I have prostate issues.

why on a yacht, though? i have a similar problem. shy bladder plus tense pelvic base. maybe even somewhat increased prostate (i don't know). so peeing is always something i need a little privacy for. but everytime i'm scuba diving plus out with a boat it's like my prostate is locking up completely. extremely weird and uncomfortable feeling. on those small boats there is never a toilet but there are sneaky options that in theory should work but don't. so i'm wondering if the wavy motion might have something to do with this problem.

There are many off label uses. Pulmonary Hypertension for one.

I take it on doctor’s orders to recover from prostate cancer. Improving the circulation in that area should help rebuilding tissue.

ouch thank you for explaining your usecase

now you have my attention.

If you want to pretend to be old, Strattera gives you the effects of this as a side effect.

Another weird effect was that my ejaculation and orgasm were seconds apart. Don’t remember which came first (pun). Hated that drug.

BPH smptoms I started having in my '60s turned out to go away when I stopped taking antihistamines for seasonal allergies.
