Hi,
my urologist has prescribed me Pollstimol (rye pollen).
I don’t feel much benefit. Pain is still there, I may have less urgency.
What is your opinion?
It costs me 15€ per month.
All the health costs are going up, I need to choose wisely.
Thanks.

Rye Pollen
Age: 41 Onset Age: 14, 22 got really bad
Symptoms: pain and discomfort perineum, a little bit while sitting in the right half of the scrotum. Sometimes dual stream while urinating. While ejaculating, not all shoots outside, some stays and flows outside with time (Without medication very painful).
Diagnosis: have seen several urologists in my life, have done any possible and pain creating diagnosis could not help me ever. Life was hopeful after googling the Stanford/Wise-Anderson Protocol in early 2008, then every ache started making sense./ Hemorrhoids: they stress my prostate when I have a Hemorrhoid flare!
Helped By: Physical therapy, keeping myself warm, hatha yoga, stretching, walking, relaxation, distraction, Tadalafil 5 mg
Worsened By: Constipation, Fear or OCD "flare up", sitting and not doing any kind of "motion", too much tension in media or life, caffeine and acidy food
Prior Treatments: Antibiotics, Tamsulosin, Lyrica, Gabapentin, Tylenol

Re: Rye Pollen
It's simply one of many possible treatments. Try it for a few months, and if there is no significant benefit, move on to something else.
There is evidence for pollen extracts

Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.
