"Ben, I have a question about Flomax Side Effects"
If you are wondering about Flomax Side Effects please send me a question detailing your personal circumstances and I will advise you of your options based upon my years of experience and extensive knowledge promoting good prostate health.
 
From my experience with BPH sufferers over the years Flomax rarely works that well anyway but has a number of side effects that are not dangerous but nonetheless are unpleasant.

The most common of the known side effects include reduced or no semen, leakiness, headaches, fatigue, nasal congestion, dizziness and syncope - a sudden loss of consciousness. Flomax often also reduces libido and can cause erectile dysfunction.

In my view the biggest downside of Flomax is that it does not improve the health of the prostate at all. It is designed purely to relieve urinary symptoms by relaxing muscles. The result of taking Flomax therefore is that the prostate will continue to deteriorate over time until it becomes necessary to have invasive treatment.

This also has to be put in the context where there are things that can be done to improve the health of prostate as described in my guide "All About the Prostate"

If you have been taking Flomax and have been experiencing side effects, please feel free to ask for my advice on how to get rid of the side effects. If you are considering the use of Flomax, please feel free to ask for my advice on Alternatives specific to your particular circumstances.
Although the patent on Flomax is about to run out, there is not yet a generic available but the FDA has cleared a generic for production.
Flomax Side Effects
There are many prescription drug alternatives to Flomax, all of them are alpha blockers. Most of them cause very similar side effects. Some of the better-known ones are: Terazosin, Doxazosin, Alfuzosin,  Uroxetrol, Rapaflow.
Flomax Generic
Flomax Alternatives
The alternative to using an alpha blocker such as Flomax and other similar alpha blockers, is to take an Alpha 5 reductase drug such as Proscar (finasteride) or a Avodart. Such Alpha 5 reductase drugs seek to reduce the cause of the irritation of the prostate, namely DHT. Although in theory, this is addressing the cause of the problem, there are significant negative side effects with Proscar (Finasteride), as is the case with all drugs.
Flomax vs. Other Drugs (Proscar/Avodart)
Tamsulosin HCL, Uroxatral, Doxazosin, Alfuzosin, Rapaflo and Its Side Effects
From my experience with BPH sufferers over the years these drugs rarely works that well anyway but have a number of side effects (similar to Flomax) that are not dangerous but nonetheless are unpleasant.

The most common of the known side effects include reduced or no semen, leakiness, headaches, fatigue, nasal congestion, dizziness and syncope - a sudden loss of consciousness. Tamsulosin often also reduces libido and can cause erectile dysfunction.

In my view the biggest downside of Tamsulosin is that it does not improve the health of the prostate at all. It is designed purely to relieve urinary symptoms by relaxing muscles. The result of taking Tamsulosin therefore is that the prostate will continue to deteriorate over time until it becomes necessary to have invasive treatment.

Dear Ben,
Love your letters they have helped so much. Thank you over and over you have really helped me. (1) I don't get nervous about my prostate, I go to the Dr. and they try and scare me in thinking something is really wrong.(2) When I read your guide and follow what you say I feel great,(3) I don't get up at night maybe 1 time every three nights or so. You have really helped me in so many ways.(4) I can go out and not worry about running to the bathroom all the time.(5) I really think my prostate is shrinking. I even have more energy. Thank you.

6/7 cases of prostate cancer will never become life-threatening and therefore do not need invasive treatments which
(despite all the claims by Doctors) have been shown by many studies not to increase life expectancy.
At the same time, these invasive procedures that often follow after a positive biopsy have the potential to cause significant damage to your quality-of-life.
