###Human: Can I take Sildoo 8 for UTI and urine retention? ###Assistant: Hi. With your elaborate history what I could make out is that you had a severe episode of acute prostatitis which was undertreated and now it is chronic prostatitis syndrome. Also, you have severe constipation. Sildoo is silodosin which is a highly potent alpha-blocker. I would like to place you on an alpha-blocker like Alfuzosin which will not produce any retrograde ejaculation in young males. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and take medications with their consent. Also, you have to correct your constipation. Could you send a picture of uroflowmetry with the date? I would like to do a fresh uroflowmetry with post void residue for you. Prostatic symptoms at times are not related to its size rather to the alpha receptor overactivity.
