Greetings !
I'm a 58 yr old male, 5'8", 50 kgs. I have prostate enlargement (BPH) and bladder neck hypertrophy.
According to my last few USGs, the prostate size had been between 24 to 27 gms.
Also I also have a strange tightness in my lower abdomen for last 4 yrs which causes constipation.
Due to the above reasons I spend hours in the bathroom. As such I'm not able to professionally work at present.
Since allopathic medicines did not work for me, I consulted a Ayurvedic doctor online. He prescribed me Himplasia,Punarnavadi Kashyam and Trivrit Lehyam. Since taking them I noticed my constipation and micturition both only got worse as days went by. Even Trivrit Lehyam (laxative) did not help. I told my doctor about it but he said it cannot be due to the medicines. After taking them for 2 weeks I have now stopped all 3 of them.
I also found out that Himplasia and Punarnavadi contain "antispasmodics" properties due to presence of herbs like Tikta, Gokshura, Babu and Kulthi.
My questions are -
1. can antispasmodics in the medicines cause constipation and difficult micturition ?
2. Can you please prescribe any alternate medicines for me ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards
