The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
Yeah, my understanding is that now there's a growing, I don't want to say a movement, [chuckles] but the idea of taking very low dose, like 2.5 milligram or 5 milligram tadalafil, even daily is becoming pretty common for many men who do not have erectile dysfunction, simply to either maintain or enhance prostate health. Is that correct?
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
Basically this is going to help decrease congestion in the prostate. A lot of people take it for ED, but it can actually help you decrease your- ... Correct, the most common scenario is if a male is waking up twice at night to pee, on average, it'll cut that down to once. So if they're waking up at four times at night, then it can cut that down to twice at night, just because you have easier blood flow.
I think low-dose daily Cialis is excellent for erectile function in men, even--- It's not indicated for that purpose, but there's a thought that it's increasing blood flow to the area. So people, I've personally used it for men who have pelvic pain to help with increasing blood flow, you can also use it potentially as a preventative. So some people have kind of thought, okay, it's increasing blood flow, it's preventing fibrosis of that erectile tissue that can happen with age or other vascular problems, so it may be beneficial for that as well.
So I found that to be somewhat interesting, and a lot of people are now starting to use that.
What we're talking about here is daily use of 2.5 to 5 mg of Cialis/tadalafil for prostate health. And I learned in researching for this episode that tadalafil/Cialis was actually developed as a drug for the treatment of prostate health to essentially increase blood flow of the prostate, to increase prostate health, not for the treatment of erectile dysfunction.
I'm hearing more and more about a practice of people taking low dose to dofil seis um low dose meaning in the neighborhood of 2.5 to 5 milligrams per day um not necessarily for erectile dysfunction but for prostate health and was um somewhat surprised to learn that those drugs were actually developed first for treatment of prostate health to increase blood flow to the prostate um is that true and um is there good reason to um think about taking 2.5 to 5 milligrams of tadalfil per day simply for maintaining blood flow to the prostate and thereby maintaining or improving prostate health I mean certainly it can do that that it can definitely help with some of these urinary symptoms that we've been talking about you know looking at Placebo control trial sort of our highest level of evidence does show that you know low dose of tadalfil these two and a half to 5 milligram these daily dosing um can help with these urinary symptoms
but daily seis has been shown to cause hypertrophy of the cavernosa smooth muscle keep the tissue healthy so in many ways I look at Daily seal as a preventative measure to keep the tissue healthy
now I tell tell patients when is the best time to start when you start noticing if there's a mild degree of Ed something starting to show up for Ed that's when I want you to start taking the daily Calis not only to help you with what your issue is but I look it to me as a preventative measure
