Hey Tuck, how’s it coming along?
:eek:
How do you do that?!
I’ve always heard the best thing for your prostate is to ejaculate a lot. Screw your libido dude, you know what you have to do. Get to it.
Much better, actually. It’s not perfect, but I’m not in the agony I was before.
Good. Take ALL of your medication, even if you feel one hundred percent better.
Of course. I’ve no desire to have antibiotic resistant bacteria running about in me. BTW, cipro’s not giving me the bright orange pee I was hoping for after reading that thread of yours on it, so many years ago.
Was that the one where I asked her if it looked like Carrot Top trying to whistle between orange wedges?
If it wasn’t, I deeply apologize.
Hell, even if it was.
Cipro has a side benefit of acting as a anti-inflammatory for the prostate, so that helps. Remember to avoid calcium intake.
Saw palmetto, garlic, zinc, citrus - all are good for your tubes. FWIW had it bad last year, now all gone - can be dealt with.
Here’s a copy of the info I downloaded last year on this:
Echinacea
Goldenseal
Garlic
Cranberry Juice
Saw Palmetto Serenoa repens, Serenoa serrulata Parts used: Berry Has nutritive, diuretic and urinary antiseptic properties. Very effective for genito-urinary system. Studies have shown that Saw Palmetto can increase urine flow by 38% for prostatitis and BPH, while helping to treat infection. Helps tone the bladder, thereby helping to relieve straining pains. Combines well with Echinacea and Buchu for prostatitis treatment. May also be used in suppository form (see Echinacea). Here’s alink to a Saw Palmetto website. Dosage recommendations: Decoction: 1C 3X/day. Tincture: 25-50 drops 3X/day. Capsules: 80-320 mg./day.
Garlic Allium sativum AKA Stinking Rose, Healall, Rusticís or Poormanís Treacle Parts used: Bulb Has tonic, stimulant, hypotensive, anti-spasmodic and anti-microbial properties. Purported to help treat infections and rid the body of parasites. Good for spasms and cramps. Combines well with Echinacea and Goldenseal for treating microbial activity. Contains alliin, but needs to be chewed or crushed to bring out alliinís antibiotic properties. Studies have found that 1 medium clove pack has the anti-bacterial properties of 100,000 units of penicillin. Depending on the type of infection, oral penicillin ranges from 600,000 to 1.2 million units. An equivalent amount of Garlic would be 6-12 cloves. Dosage recommendations: Chew three cloves at a time 2-4X/day. Syrup: 1 Tbsp. 3X/day. Capsules may also be taken, follow label directions.
Echinacea Echinacea purpurea, Echinacea angustifolia, Echinacea pallida AKA Purple Coneflower Parts used: Root, seed, juice of whole plant Uses as an antibiotic and immune system stimulant. Has anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-microbial properties that work well on the reproductive system. Combines well with Saw Palmetto for treating prostatitis. May be combined in equal parts with Saw Palmetto and used as a suppository for prostatitis and enlarged prostates. NOTE Echinacea should be taken in large amounts for infection. It can cause stomach upset in small children and can cause to the mouth to tingle and actively salivate. For acute conditions take every hour or two. The fresh root or a tincture of the fresh root should be used whenever possible. If using dried herb, use recently dried herb products. Dosage recommendations: Decoction: 1C every one to two hours. Tincture: 1tsp. Every one to two hours. Suppository: inserted rectally after each bowel movement. NOTE Herbalist James Green indicates that due to the popularity and demand of this herb that many wild strains in America are rapidly being depleted. Mr. Green asks that consumers choose the species echinacea purpurea, which is very easy to cultivate and grow by organic gardeners, to help preserve the valuable wild resources
That was Pyridium. Different med altogether.
Yes, Rysdad, I’m sure it was. I believe it was entitled something like Cheesy Poofs and my labia.
FWIW, there is no more cheesy poof coloured anything coming out of my vagina.
