How Long Does Avodart Take To Shrink Prostate Gland?
Question: how long must you take Avodart before you see your prostrate shrink
Brief Answer:
More then 6 months
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM,
Regarding your questions, trials have shown that more then 6 months of therapy with Avodart may be required before improvement.
Meanwhile, a decrease in the volume of ejaculate may occur but this does not appear to interfere with normal sexual function. Anyway, there is also a small possibility of impotence and decreased libido.
Hope I have answered your question and this is helpful for you.
Let me know if you have further queries.
Take care,
Dr. Papaqako
