If you’re asking if we worry about a prostate: no because we don’t have one.

If you’re asking if women think of sex: I would say look at the best selling books every year. They are always trashy novels. 50 Shades of Grey didn’t become a best seller and top box office because of men.

20 times a month, that’s laughable. Who’s got time for that?

I pee in Morse Code.

I'm 68 and my bladder habits are the same as when I was a teen. I do know that when I have to go...I have to go soon. It's always been that way, so I don't worry about it.

Yep, same here, much more often, and with a sciatic nerve issue, and my leg being numb, but hurts like a mother every time I get up.

Those are amateur numbers

Didn’t read all of this, so apologies if duplicate. Was on FloMax for a while and it works...but, it caused a severely stuffy nose (hard to sleep when you can’t breathe) and it messes with your mojo. Not good. No further explanation required.

Doc put me on low dose Tadalafil (Cialis). Life saver. Because it’s low dose you won’t be walking around with a boner all day (but may occasionally wake up with one). Took about two weeks to start working but completely back to normal. Get your annual psa test and if normal, ask your doc about it. Worked like a charm for me.

From what I have experienced back in about 2016 was the worst in terms of pee flow.
In Ireland for my daughter's wedding. The day before returning home I could not pee at all. In severe pain and the ambulance took me to the Dublin hospital. Put a catheter in me and came back to Canada and had a turp operation. Been a lot better ever since but not perfect. I am blessed. They never charged me a cent.

I was going to talk about this as well. Low dose Tagalafil works. And Kegel exercises. I think it allow the bladder to contract more quickly.

Oh, and the 20 times a month works as well. But, those are amateur numbers...I suggest you get help with that...

It can be things other than an enlarged prostate, but get checked.

Thanks but I knew only men have prostrates. (I used to be a nurse a long time ago)

What I meant is... Is it beneficial for women to be sexual active?

(No disrespect intended but I've never been able to get a serious answer to that question.)

One of the many lasting effects of my spinal injury is a neurogenic bladder. I use an intermittent catheter 4 times a day. So if you need to just take a pill do the happy pee pee dance.

20 times per month! Maybe when I was 18, but over 60 that would be a um, a hard target.

One a recent group road trip we all at lunch together, and then when as a group to the next stop, a rest stop at a pretty state park. It was only 60 minutes after lunch, so I was not really needing to go, but I am old enough to follow the sage advice, never pass up an opportunity to go to the bathroom.

The bathroom had just one urinal, and two toilets, so I had to use the toilet. There were other men following me so I knew I needed to get on with it so others could go. I could clearly hear the guy at the other toilet whizzing away, and I was like the song, under pressure. Fortunately, I had a good stream and finished up and was not standing there hogging a toilet doing nothing.

I'm only 47 so no exam yet. I'm sure it's cool - I guess it's digital now so there's probably a computer involved.

;)

Yep, it's digital. There will definitely be digits involved, someone else's, hopefully, long slender digits instead of sausage fingers.

Many doctors nix the digital test these days and go by the PSI test

Well I can tell you that if I don't use a catheter on time my PSI test is waaaaay high!


Maybe you meant PSA?

Not disrespectful to ask. Sex does increase release of endorphins, improving mood. Other hormones like oxytocin, the love hormone which can improve mood and induce labor in pregnant women. Also can decrease abdominal pain during menstration

Thanks Ms PorscheGAL.

Gwad that sound awful. You have my sympathy.

Yeah, but who wants to risk a RSI (repetitive strain injury)
