Ibuprofen, Advil, etc are COX2 inhibitors. They decrease inflammation especially in the prostate by inhibiting prostaglandin e2.
Seriously take 1gram of Tylenol you will notice a difference. It is supposed to be safe up to 4g a day. Of coarse keep an eye on ur liver values. Quercetin and Cucumin also work the same way w the prostate but not as well.
Regular Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Use and Erectile Dysfunction
Conclusions
These data suggest that regular nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use is associated with erectile dysfunction beyond what would be expected due to age and comorbidity. jurology.com/article/S0022-5347(1005203-1/abstract
I think this is very intersting thread and I agree 100% here. Especially where is says about C RP increased. Our problem is degenrating nerves in different body parts, especially in brain, anus,prostate etc.
honestly this thread and Auto immune thread need to be discussed and paid serious attention. The rest like prostatitis , JN 18 points are garbage.Unfortunately these two threads have taken all the attention and times for most of the members uselessly.
People right now are just dying for their sexual loss and can not see ahead.I take this problem very seriously. Guys think for the future. I think many of us may get Alzheimer’s , Parkinson, Osteoporosis, Cancer or sclerosis in coming years.
spstriken, unknown long-term health issues from finasteride, especially high grade prostate cancer which finasteride users (lucky you don’t fall into this category) are now known to be at an elevated risk since the label change, are an increasing worry.
and you guys still want to spend hours on prostate garbage theory or you are tell me that you (they guys who believe in prostate as the cause of our sexual problems) are trying to stop possible cancer by using Dr.G’s methodology?
Since Propecia, the thought of taking any quantity of drugs, prescription or non-prescription, does not interest me.
However, if anti-inflammatory drugs help, working with natural means to get the same types of effect are worth trying. (someone mentioned herbs) Here’s a website listing a bunch of anti-inflammatory foods.
I can say that I eat a lot of these day to day as I’ve incorporated a spinach salad in my diet daily. I’m not saying inflammation is the sole problem (or the problem at all) but would make sense as my diet directly correlates with my symptoms.
