On Avodart. Cannot Have A Good Erection, No Semen. Viagra Not Helping. Any Diet Can Help Improve The Condition?
My boyfriend of 57 yrs of age says he is on Avodart and now is impotant. He says he cannot have a good erection and no semen. Is there anything that can be done? Like any kind of foods to eat that will not interfere with the medication and what it does. He tried Viagra and said it bothered his eyesight, so I thought maybe foods like asparagus, watermelon and drinking water would help. I think he is worried they may interfere with the purpose of Avodart.

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Avodart can affect sexuality. This is usually worse during the initial use of the medication, it is usually worse in the first 6 months.
After this time period of 6 months the risk of complications usually decreases significantly.
The natural products that you want to use should not pose a problem with the avodart.
He may also want to consider one of the other medications such as cialis or levitra.
I hope this helps
